Question on the LM317
I'm using one of these set as a constant current regulator. The
datasheet says 2.2A max, internally limited by thermal shutdown. If I try to pass more than that, despite it being very well heatsinked, will the component shut down completely or will it just refuse to pass more current? If i shuts down completely it will mess up my timing issues, and I'll use a resistor. If not I'll not use the res to grab every last ounce of power it can pass. Cheers J |
