Hi all,
I have been looking for regulator to power a pair of 2a3 amp. Most of the designs look complicated and the most simple zener/voltage divider does not appeal that much to me.
Then i found several designs over the net using LM317 for regulation (for preamp).
Consulted the datasheet, it says nothing about maximum absolute voltage. It only specifies Vout-Vin<40v, something that is manageable in my case. Furthermore, the current rating of 1.5A is more than enough for any power amp application, am I right?
Has anyone ever tried this and what is the outcome of it? If this chip is applicable, it would make a really simple and yet moderately good performing regulator, I think.
Thanks
