Frequently asked questions
Can the LM317MKVURG3 replace the LM317T in a through-hole design?
Not as a direct drop-in. The LM317MKVURG3 is a surface-mount TO-252-3 package; the LM317T is a through-hole TO-220. The pin assignments differ, and the tab on the TO-252-3 is the output pin, not electrically isolated. A new PCB layout is required.
What is the LM317MKVURG3's PSRR specification?
The LM317MKVURG3 lists PSRR of 80 dB to 65 dB at 120 Hz, depending on load current.
What are equivalent parts to the LM317MKVURG3 from other manufacturers?
Functional equivalents in the adjustable positive regulator class include the LM1085IS-ADJ/NOPB (3 A output, 75 dB PSRR at 120 Hz) and the LMS1587IS-3.3/NOPB (3 A fixed 3.3 V output, 72 dB PSRR at 120 Hz). Both are higher-current parts in different packages; verify pin compatibility and thermal design before substitution.
