Frequently Asked Questions
How do I set the output voltage of the LM317LM/NOPB?
The LM317LM/NOPB output voltage is set by a resistor divider connected between the ADJ pin and output. Using the formula Vout = 1.25 × (1 + R2/R1), you can achieve any voltage between 1.25V and 37V. A typical R1 of 240Ω and adjustable R2 up to 7kΩ covers most common rails.
What is the maximum current the LM317LM/NOPB can supply?
The LM317LM/NOPB is rated for up to 500mA continuous output current. It includes built-in thermal overload protection and current limiting, so it will reduce current rather than fail if thermal limits are exceeded — suitable for light-load applications and portable designs.
Which package does the LM317LM/NOPB use, and is it lead-free?
It comes in the SOT-23-3 surface-mount package (3 pins, ~2.9mm × 1.3mm footprint). The NOPB suffix confirms it is fully RoHS compliant and lead-free, meeting EU and global environmental regulations for PCB assembly.
What are common alternatives to the LM317LM/NOPB?
Drop-in or pin-compatible alternatives include the LM317LDBVR (same TI family, 500mA, SOT-23), NCV317SN1T1G from ON Semiconductor, and the LM317T in TO-220 for higher current needs. All share the same 1.25V reference and two-resistor adjustment method.
Can the LM317LM/NOPB be used in battery charging applications?
Yes. The adjustable output and built-in current limiting make it suitable for single-cell NiMH or lead-acid trickle chargers. By setting the output to 4.2V with a sense resistor, it can also function as a simple constant-current / constant-voltage charger at low charge rates under 500mA.
