It is the negative complement to the LM317 positive regulator, and together they can form a complete split-rail power supply. The device requires only two external resistors to program the output voltage. Internal protection includes current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe-area compensation, making the device essentially indestructible under normal operating conditions. Note: This specific part number (LM337IMP) is obsolete; the replacement is LM337IMP\/NOPB.","working_principle":"The LM337IMP maintains a constant -1.25V reference between the output (VOUT) and adjustment (ADJ) pins. An external resistor R1 connected between VOUT and ADJ establishes a constant current through the voltage divider. A second resistor R2 from ADJ to ground sets the output voltage: VOUT = -1.25V \u00d7 (1 + R2\/R1). The adjustment pin draws a small quiescent current (65\u00b5A typical) which contributes a negligible error term. The internal pass transistor regulates by controlling the current flow from input to output, maintaining the desired output voltage despite changes in load current or input voltage. The dropout voltage of approximately 1.9V means the input must be at least 1.9V more negative than the output for proper regulation.","pin_description":"<table border='1'><tr><th>Pin<\/th><th>Name<\/th><th>Description<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>1<\/td><td>ADJ<\/td><td>Adjustment terminal (connects to voltage divider)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2<\/td><td>VOUT<\/td><td>Regulated output voltage (-1.2V to -37V)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3<\/td><td>VIN<\/td><td>Unregulated input voltage (-4.2V to -40V)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4 (Tab)<\/td><td>VOUT<\/td><td>Output (connected to pin 2, heat sink tab)<\/td><\/tr><\/table>","application_scenarios":"<ul><li><b>Dual-Rail Op-Amp Supply:<\/b> Pair the LM337IMP with an LM317 to create \u00b115V or \u00b112V supplies for dual-supply op-amps.
