79XX
Description
This series of fixed-negative-voltage monolithic integrated-circuit voltage regulators
is designed to complement Series
MIK7800 in 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 1.5 amperes of output current. The internal
current limiting and thermal shutdown features of these regulators make them essentially immune to overload. In addition to use as fixed-
voltage regulators, these devices can be used with external components to obtain adjustable output voltages and current
and also as the power pass element in precision regulators.
Features
•3-Terminal Regulators
•Output Current Up to 1.5 A
•No External Components
•Internal Thermal Overload Protection
•High Power Dissipation Capability
•Internal Short-Circuit
