I would like to use an LM317L 3 terminal adjustable regulator to supply(say) 2.4v output from a stable 24v supply.
The anticipated output current should be no higher than 25 ma. Well within the 100ma max of the regulator.
SO, what's the question I hear you all asking.......
What will the current be in the 24 volt input??
Is it simply output current *(v.out/v.in) ie.. 25*(2.4/ 24) = 2.5ma ??
OR do I miss the point somewhere??
Best Wishes.
