The minimum input voltage required for the LM317KTER to operate is 3V above the output voltage. For example, if the output voltage is 5V, the minimum input voltage would be 8V.
To ensure stability and prevent oscillations, a minimum output capacitance of 1uF is recommended. Additionally, the input capacitor should be at least 10uF to prevent oscillations.
The maximum output current of the LM317KTER is 1.5A. However, it's recommended to derate the output current to 1A or less to ensure reliable operation.
The output voltage of the LM317KTER can be adjusted by using a resistive divider network between the output and the adjust pin. The output voltage can be calculated using the formula: Vout = 1.25 * (1 + R2/R1).
The thermal shutdown temperature of the LM317KTER is typically around 150°C. When the junction temperature exceeds this value, the device will shut down to prevent damage.
