Description
TO-220 L4940 1.5 A very low drop voltage regulator IC Datasheet - production data D²PAK Table 1.Device summary Order code TO-220 D²PAK Outpu.
The L4940 series of three-terminal positive regulators is available in TO-220 and D²PAK packages and with several fixed output voltages, making it use.
Features
* Precise 5, 8.5, 12 V outputs
* Low dropout voltage (450 mV typ. at 1 A)
* Very low quiescent current
* Thermal shutdown
* Short-circuit protection
Applications
* Thanks to their very low input/output voltage drop, these devices are particularly suitable for battery-powered equipment, reducing consumption and prolonging battery-life. Each type employs internal current limiting, anti-saturation circuit, thermal shutdown and safe area protection. April 2015
