The µA723 is a precision integrated-circuit
voltage regulator, featuring high ripple rejection,
excellent input and load regulation, excellent temperature stability, and low standby current. The circuit consists
of a temperature-compensated reference-voltage amplifier, an error amplifier, a 150-mA output transistor, and
an adjustable-output current limiter.
The µA723 is designed for use in positive or negative power supplies as a series, shunt, switching, or floating
regulator. For output currents exceeding 150 mA, additional pass elements can be connected as shown in
Figures 4 and 5.
The µA723C is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C.

† Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES: 1. Maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max), θJA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any allowable
ambient temperature is PD = (TJ(max) – TA)/θJA. Operating at the absolute maximum TJ of 150°C can impact reliability.
2. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51, except for through-hole packages, which use a trace
length of zero.

The marketing status values are defined as follows:
ACTIVE: Product device recommended for new designs.
LIFEBUY: TI has announced that the device will be discontinued, and a lifetime-buy period is in effect.
NRND: Not recommended for new designs. Device is in production to support existing customers, but TI does not recommend using this part in a new design.
PREVIEW: Device has been announced but is not in production. Samples may or may not be available.
OBSOLETE: TI has discontinued the production of the device.
(2)
RoHS: TI defines "RoHS" to mean semiconductor products that are compliant with the current EU RoHS requirements for all 10 RoHS substances, including the requirement that RoHS substance
