The LM137H from National Semiconductor is a negative adjustable linear regulator capable of delivering up to 1.5A with an output range down to -37V. Housed in a rugged TO-3 package, it offers excellent thermal performance and 66dB PSRR at 120Hz, making it a reliable choice for negative supply rails in audio, industrial, and test applications.

  • High Negative Voltage Range: Adjustable down to -37V, covering a wide spectrum of negative supply needs.
  • 1.5A Output Current: Sufficient for demanding loads in industrial and audio equipment.
  • Excellent PSRR: 66dB at 120Hz minimizes mains ripple interference.
  • Rugged TO-3 Package: Metal can construction ensures superior heat dissipation and durability.

Negative High-Voltage Supplies

The LM137H's ability to output up to -37V makes it suitable for biasing avalanche photodiodes or vacuum tube circuits requiring negative rails.

Audio Preamplifiers

With 66dB PSRR, it provides a clean negative supply for op-amps in high-end audio preamps, reducing hum and noise.

Industrial Process Control

Its 1.5A current capability and TO-3 package allow for robust negative supplies in PLCs and motor controllers.

Test Equipment Calibration

Adjustable output enables precise negative reference voltages for calibration instruments.

Telecom Line Drivers

Negative rails for line drivers and receivers in legacy telecom systems benefit from its low-noise regulation.

Power Supply Sequencing

Used in systems requiring a negative rail to be established before positive rails, ensuring proper IC startup.
