Description
The LM78XX series of three-terminal positive regulators
is 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. If
adequate heat sinking is provided, they can deliver over
1 A output current. Although designed primarily as fixed-
voltage regulators, these devices can be used with exter-
nal components for adjustable voltages and currents.
