3-Terminal 1A Positive Voltage Regulator
General Description
The LM78XX series of three terminal positive regulators are
available in the TO-220 package and with several fixed output
voltages, making them useful in a wide range of applications.
Each type employs internal current limiting, thermal shut down
and safe operating area protection, making it essentially inde-
structible. If adequate heat sinking is provided, they can deliver
over 1A output current. Although designed primarily as fixed
voltage regulators, these devices can be used with external
components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents.
