SG137A/SG237A/SG337A
SG137/SG237/SG337
1.5 AMP NEGATIVE
ADJUSTABLE REGULATOR
DESCRIPTION
The SG137A family of negative adjustable regulators will deliver up to 1.5A
output current over an output voltage range of -1.2V to -37V. Silicon General
has made significant improvements in these regulators compared to previous
devices, such as better line and load regulation, and a maximum output voltage
error of 1%. The SG137 family uses the same chip design and guarantees
maximum output voltage error of
±2%.
Every effort has been made to make these devices easy to use and difficult to
damage. Internal current and power limiting coupled with true thermal limiting
prevents device damage due to overloads or shorts even if the regulator is not
fastened to a heat sink.
The SG137A/137 family of products are ideal complements to the SG117A/
117 adjustable positive regulators.

The output voltage is determined by two external resistors, R

In most applications, the second term is small enough to be
ignored, typically about 0.5% of V

. In more critical applica-
tions, the exact formula should be used, with I

the SG137A flows from input to output. If this current is not
absorbed by the load, the output of the regulator will rise above
the regulated value. The current drawn by R
1
and R
2
is normally
high enough to absorb the current, but care must be taken in no–
load situations where R
1
and R

have high values. The maximum
value for the operating current, which must be absorbed, is 5mA
for the SG137A, If input-output voltage differential is less than

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
regulation, temperature drift, long term drift, and noise, can be
improved by a factor of 6.6 over the standard regulator configu-
ration. This assumes a zener whose drift and noise is considera-
bly better than the regulator itself. The LM329B has 20PPM/°C
maximum drift and about 10 times lower noise than the regulator.
In the application shown Figure 8, regulators #2 to #N will track
regulator #1 to within ±24mV initially, and to ±60mV over all load,
line, and temperature conditions. If any regulator output is
shorted to ground, all other outputs will drop to -2V. Load
regulation of regulators #2 to #N will be improved by V

compared to a standard regulator, so regulator #1 should be the
one which has the lowest load current.
