LM7912C
LM7912C is 3-Terminal Negative Regulators manufactured by National Semiconductor.
- Part of the LM7905C comparator family.
- Part of the LM7905C comparator family.
Description
The LM79XX series of 3-terminal regulators is available with fixed output voltages of b5V b8V b12V and b15V These devices need only one external ponent a pensation capacitor at the output The LM79XX series is packaged in the TO-220 power package and is capable of supplying 1 5A of output current
These regulators employ internal current limiting safe area protection and thermal shutdown for protection against virtually all overload conditions
Low ground pin current of the LM79XX series allows output voltage to be easily boosted above the preset value with a resistor divider The low quiescent current drain of these devices with a specified maximum change with line and load ensures good regulation in the voltage boosted mode For applications requiring other voltages see LM137 data sheet
