The 52150/52175, which is a replacement for the 78HGA, is an adjustable 4-terminal positive voltage regulator
capable of supplying in excess of 5.0 A over a 5.0 V to 24 V output range. Only two external resistors are required to
set the output voltage. It is packaged in a hermetically sealed TO-3, and provides 50W power dissipation. The
regulator consists of a monolithic chip driving a discrete series-pass element. A beryllium-oxide substrate is used in
conjunction with an isothermal layout to optimize the thermal characteristics of each device and still maintain electrical
isolation between the various chips. This unique circuit design limits the maximum junction temperature of the power
output transistor to provide full automatic thermal overload protection. If the safe operating area is ever exceeded
(Note 1), the device simply shuts down rather than fail or damage other system components. This feature eliminates
the need to design costly regulators built from discrete components.

NOTES:
1. This voltage regulator offers output transistor safe-area protection. However, to maintain full protection, the
device must be operated within the maximum input-to-output voltage differential rating listed on the data sheet
under “Absolute Maximum Ratings”. For applications violating these limits, device will not be fully protected.
2. Load and line regulation are specified at constant junction temperature. Pulse testing is required with a pulse
width
≤
1 ms and a duty cycle
≤
5%. Full Kelvin connection methods must be used to measure these parameters.
3. The performance characteristics of the adjustable series (78HGA) is specified for V
OUT
= 5.0 V, unless otherwise
noted.
4. V
OUT
is defined as V
OUT
= R1+ R2 (V
CONT
) where R1 and R2 are defined in the Basic Test Circuit diagram.
R2
5. Dropout Voltage is the input-output voltage differential that causes the output voltage to decrease by 5% of its
initial value.

POSITIVE ADJUSTABLE 5-AMP VOLTAGE REGULATOR
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
This device has thermal overload protection from excessive power and internal short circuit protection which limits the
circuit’s maximum current. Thus, the device is protected from overload abnormalities. Although the internal power
dissipation is limited, the junction temperature must be kept below the maximum specified temperature (150ºC). It is
recommended by the manufacturer that the maximum junction temperature be kept as low as possible for increased
reliability. To calculate the maximum junction temperature or heat sink required, the following thermal resistance
values should be used.

The device is designed to operate without external compensation components. However, the amount of external
filtering of these voltage regulators depends upon the circuit layout. If in a specific application the regulator is more
than four inches from the filter capacitor, a 2µF solid tantalum capacitor should be used at the input. A 1µF capacitor
should be used at the output to reduce transients created by fast switching loads, as seen in the basic test circuit.
These filter capacitors must be located as close to the regulator as possible.
Caution:
Permanent damage can result from forcing the output voltage higher than the input voltage. A protection
diode from output to input should be used if this condition exists.
VOLTAGE OUTPUT
The device has an adjustable output voltage from 5.0V to 24V which can be programmed by the external resistor
network (potentiometer or two fixed resistors) using the relationship:
Example: If R1 = 0Ω and R2 = 5kΩ, Then
V
OUT
= 5V nominal.
V
OUT
= V
CONTROL
x R1 + R2
R2
Or, if R1 = 10 kΩ and R2 = 5 kΩ then
V
OUT
= 15V
