GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AME78XX is a fixed output positive regulator. When used as a Zener diode/resistor combination replacement, the AME78XX usually results in an effective output impedance improvement of two orders of magnitude, and lower quiescent current. With adequate heat sinking the AME78XX can deliver 1A output current. Current limiting is included to limit the peak output current to a safe value. The AME78XX is available in the plastic TO-220 and TO-252 packages. n FEATURES
