JAJS771H October 1999 – October 2018 LM4041-N , LM4041-N-Q1
PRODUCTION DATA.
With amplifier rails of ±15 V, the output can be bound to ±11.5 V with the LM4041 adjustable set for 10 V and two nominal diode voltage drops of 0.7 V.
Select RS = 15 kΩ to keep LR low. Calculate LR to confirm RS selection.
Use Equation 11, but in this case, take the negative supply into account.
This is an acceptable value for lR that does not draw excessive current, but prevents the part from being starved for current.
