Description

The L78 series of three-terminal positive regulators is available in TO-220, TO-220FP, D²PAK and DPAK packages and several fixed output voltages, making it useful in a wide range of applications.

These regulators can provide local on-card regulation, eliminating the distribution problems associated with single point regulation. Each type embeds internal current limiting, thermal shut down and safe area protection, making it essentially indestructible. 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 external components to obtain adjustable voltage and currents.

Features

● Output current up to 1.5 A

● Output voltages of 5; 6; 8; 8.5; 9; 12; 15; 18; 24 V

● Thermal overload protection

● Short circuit protection

● Output transition SOA protection

● 2 output voltage tolerance (A version)

● Guaranteed in extended temperature range (A version)

L7808AC属于集成电路（IC） > 线性 + 开关稳压器。意法半导体（ST）集团制造生产的L7808AC稳压器 - 线性线性稳压器用于提供稳定的输出电压，无论负载电流、输入电压或环境因素如何变化，这些输出电压通常都要保持不变。它们的工作原理要求输入电压维持在高于所需的输出电压，而且要超出某个最小量，并且在工作时会将输入端的任何多余电压转换为热量。对于大多数应用而言，虽然这种稳压器的效率低于开关模式的稳压器，但它们通常更适合对噪声高度敏感的应用。
