Hello peeps,
I have been working on a 10mA constant cource that supplies atleast 5V at output. I have been using the LM317 regulator for creating the constant current source of 10mA but the voltage drop is too high. I read in the datasheet of LM317 that it has a 1.25V drop. I have been using a 9V DC input. I have attached the datasheet for LM317, the spice models I have created as well for your reference. It would be great if anyone could help me sort out the problem. I need to arrive at a circuit that outputs 5V at 10mA. Any help and comments are appreciated much.
