J553 SERIES
Current Regulator Diodes
The J553 Series is a low cost family of current regulators designed for demanding applications in test equipment and instrumentation. These devices utilize the proven JFET techniques to produce a single two-leaded device which is extremely simple to operate. With nominal current ranges from 0.5 mA to 4.5 mA, the J553 Series will meet a wide array of design requirements. In addition to its two-lead construction, this series feature improved current control over wide temperature ranges and simple "floating" operation as no power supplies are required for biasing. Several of the devices provide effective current control operating down to even 2 volts. Finally, its low-cost TO-92 package ensures a cost effective design solution.
