LM78XX Series Voltage
Regulators
General Description
The LM78XX series of three terminal
regulators is available with several fixed output voltages making them useful in a wide range of applications.
One of these is local on card regulation, eliminating the distribution problems associated with single point regulation.
The voltages available allow these
regulators to be used in logic systems, instrumentation, HiFi, and other solid state electronic equipment.
Although designed primarily as fixed voltage
regulators these devices can be used with external components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents.
The LM78XX series is available in an alumi...
