LM334 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The LM334 from Texas Instruments is a 3-terminal adjustable current source designed for a wide range of applications. It features a broad operating voltage range of 1V to 40V and can be programmed for currents from 1μA to 10mA using a single external resistor. The device boasts excellent current regulation with a typical specification of 0.02%/V and an initial accuracy of ±3%.

 

This current source is available in both TO-92 and SOIC-8 packages, supporting surface mount applications. Its true 2-terminal operation simplifies circuit design, and it can also function as a rectifier in AC applications due to its ability to draw minimal current when reverse-biased up to 20V. The LM334 is specified for operation over a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

 

Applications for the LM334 include bias networks, surge protection, low-power references, ramp generation, and LED drivers. Its temperature-dependent sense voltage, proportional to absolute temperature, also makes it suitable as a temperature sensor.
