Application Note GENERAL Figure 1 shows a basic functional diagram for the LM1085- Adj (excluding protection circuitry) . The topology is basically that of the LM317 except for the pass transistor . Instead of a Darlingtion NPN with its two diode voltage drop, the LM1085 uses a single NPN.
Application Note (Continued) Figure 3 shows a typical application using a fixed output regulator . Rt1 and Rt2 are the line resistances. V LOAD is less than the V OUT by the sum of the voltage drops along the line resistances. In this case, the load regulation seen at the R LOAD would be degraded from the data sheet specification.
Application Note (Continued) must be added, one for case to heat-sink ( θ CH ) and one for heatsink to ambient ( θ HA ). The junction temperature can be predicted as follows: T J =T A +P D ( θ JC + θ CH + θ HA )=T A +P D θ JA T J is junction temperature, T A is ambient temperature, and P D is the power consumption of the device.
