MC79L00, A
Series
Three-Terminal Low Current
Negative Voltage Regulators
The MC79L00, A Series negative voltage regulators are inexpensive,
easy–to–use devices suitable for numerous applications requiring up to100
mA. Like the higher powered MC7900 Series negative regulators, this series
features thermal shutdown and current limiting, making them remarkably
rugged. In most applications, no external components are required for
operation.
The MC79L00 devices are useful for on–card regulation or any other
application where a regulated negative voltage at a modest current level is
needed. These regulators offer substantial advantage over the common
resistor/zener diode approach.

* SOP–8 is an internally modified SO–8 package.
Pins 2, 3, 6, and 7 are electrically common to the
die attach flag. This internal lead frame modifica-
tion decreases package thermal resistance and
increases power dissipation capability when
appropriately mounted on a printed circuit board.
SOP–8 conforms to all external dimensions of the
standard SO–8 package.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Design Considerations
The MC79L00, A Series of fixed voltage regulators are
designed with Thermal Overload Protections that shuts down
the circuit when subjected to an excessive power overload
condition, Internal Short Circuit Protection that limits the
maximum current the circuit will pass.
In many low current applications, compensation
capacitors are not required. However, it is recommended that
the regulator input be bypassed with a capacitor if the
regulator is connected to the power supply filter with long wire
length, or if the output load capacitance is large. An input
bypass capacitor should be selected to provide good
high–frequency characteristics to insure stable operation
under all load conditions. A 0.33
µF
or larger tantalum, mylar,
or other capacitor having low internal impedance at high
frequencies should be chosen. The bypass capacitor should
be mounted with the shortest possible leads directly across
the regulator’s input terminals. Normally good construction
techniques should be used to minimize ground loops and
lead resistance drops since the regulator has no external
sense lead. Bypassing the output is also recommended.

A common ground is required between the input and the output
voltages. The input voltage must remain typically 2.0 V above
the output voltage even during the low point on the ripple voltage.
* CI is required if regulator is located an appreciable
*
distance from the power supply filter
** CO improves stability and transient response.
