HEATSINK REQUIREMENTS
The LM317 regulators have internal thermal shutdown to pro-
tect the device from over-heating. Under all operating condi-
tions, the junction temperature of the LM317 should not
exceed the rated maximum junction temperature (T
C for the LM117, or 125°C for the LM317A and LM317. A
heatsink may be required depending on the maximum device
power dissipation and the maximum ambient temperature of
the application. To determine if a heatsink is needed, the
power dissipated by the regulator, P

allowable temperature rise, T

If the calculated maximum allowable thermal resistance is
higher than the actual package rating, then no additional work
is needed. If the calculated maximum allowable thermal re-
sistance is lower than the actual package rating either the

If a heatsink is needed, the value can be calculated from the
formula:

HEATSINKING SURFACE MOUNT PACKAGES
The TO-263 (S), SOT-223 (EMP) and TO-252 (MDT) pack-
ages use a copper plane on the PCB and the PCB itself as a
heatsink. To optimize the heat sinking ability of the plane and
PCB, solder the tab of the package to the plane.
