Hello All,
I've purchased quite a few LM317's in order to create +5v stable analog voltage from a the +5v of a USB jack.
Problem is, and this unfortunately is not very clearly stated in the datasheet (Fairchild),
Vout - Vin must be at least 3v. Which is not the case.
Question: any idea of a work-around? saving my already purchased 25 or so IC's?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
