The LM2931 series can be current boosted with a PNP transistor. The
D45VH7, on a heatsink, will provide an output current of 5.0 A with an input
to output voltage differential of approximately 1.0 V. Resistor R in
conjunction with the VBE of the PNP determines when the pass transistor
begins conducting. This circuit is not short circuit proof.
The circuit of Figure 19 can be modified to provide supply protection against
short circuits by adding the current sense resistor RSC and an additional PNP
transistor. The current sensing PNP must be capable of handling the short
circuit current of the LM2931. Safe operating area of both transistors must be
considered under worst case conditions.

Power Dissipation vs. P.C.B. Copper Length

DEFINITIONS

Dropout Voltage − The input/output voltage differential Maximum Power Dissipation − The maximum total
at which the regulator output no longer maintains regulation device dissipation for which the regulator will operate
against further reductions in input voltage. Measured when within specifications.
the output decreases 100 mV from nominal value at 14 V Bias Current − That part of the input current that is not
input, dropout voltage is affected by junction temperature delivered to the load.
and load current. Output Noise Voltage − The rms AC voltage at the
Line Regulation − The change in output voltage for a output, with constant load and no input ripple, measured
change in the input voltage. The measurement is made under over a specified frequency range.
