[sdiy] ML317: 12V to 10V?

[Tim Ressel]

It depends on the current, temperature, and whose LM317 you are using. For a 
National Semi LM317 at room temperature you can get almost an amp with 2 volts 
of drop across the regulator. 


The LMS8117A guarantees 1.2 volts @ 1A.

Hi,

Can I use LM317 voltage regulator to have +10V out of +12V? (2V
difference) Can't find on net.

Many thanks.
