NTE923

The NTE923 and NTE923D are precision voltage regulators designed by NTE Electronics primarily for series regulator applications. These integrated circuits can supply output currents up to 150mA without the need for external pass transistors. For applications requiring higher load currents, external transistors can be added to provide currents in excess of 10A.

The devices feature extremely low standby current drain and support both linear and foldback current limiting. They are versatile and can be used in various applications beyond series regulation, including shunt regulators, current regulators, and temperature controllers.

Key electrical specifications include a maximum input voltage of 40V and an adjustable output voltage ranging from 2V to 37V. The operating temperature range is 0°C to +70°C. The NTE923 has an internal power dissipation of 800mW, while the NTE923D is rated at 660mW. Absolute maximum ratings include a continuous voltage of 40V from V+ to V– and a pulse voltage of 50V for 50ms.

These regulators are suitable for a wide array of electronic designs requiring stable and adjustable voltage outputs. Their flexibility allows them to be integrated into both simple and complex power management systems.
