Description
3-TERMINAL POSITIVE VOLTAGE REGULATORS
The GE78XX series of fixed-voltage monolithic integrated-circuit voltage regulators designed for a wide range
of applications. These applications include on-card regulation for elimination of noise and distribution problems
associated with single-point regulation. Each of these regulators can deliver up to 1 amperes of output current.
The internal current limiting and thermal shutdown features of these regulators make them essentially immune
to overload.
