Data Sheet AZ78LXX
The AZ78LXX series are three terminal positive
regulators with several fixed output voltages. These
regulators can provide local on card regulation, eliminating the distribution problems associated with single point regulation. The AZ78LXX can be used in logic systems, instrumentation, HiFi, and other solid state electronic equipment. When used as a Zener diode/resistor combination replacement, the AZ78LXX usually results an effective output impedance improvement of two orders of magnitude, and lower quiescent current.
· Output Current up to 100mA · Fixed Output Voltages of 5V, 8V, 9V and 12V · Output Voltage Tolerances of ±5% over the Full
Temperature Range · Internal Short Circuit Current-limiting · Internal Thermal Overload Protection · No External Components
Applications
With adequate heat sinking the AZ78LXX can deliver · High Efficiency Linear
