MC78xxCT - (MC78xxCT) 3-Terminal Fixed Positive Voltage Regulator

This page provides the datasheet information for the MC78xxCT, a member of the MC7812CT (MC78xxCT) 3-Terminal Fixed Positive Voltage Regulator family.

Datasheet Summary

Description

These voltage regulators are monolithic integrated circuits designed as fixed-voltage regulators for a wide variety of applications including local, on-card regulation.

These regulators employ internal current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe-area compensation.

Features

  • Output current in excess of 1.0 ampere.
  • No external components required.
  • Internal thermal overload protection.
  • Internal short-circuit current limiting.
  • Output transistor safe-area compensation.
  • Output voltage offered in 2% tolerance Cin 0.33µF Co 0.1µF Notes: A common ground is required between the input and the output voltages. The input voltage must remain typically 2.0V above the output voltage even during the low point on the input ri.

MC78xxCT Series New Product Vishay Semiconductor 3-Terminal Fixed Positive Voltage Regulators MC78xxCT TO-220AB Pin Definition 1. Input 2. Ground 3. Output (Heatsink/ tab connected to pin 2) Description These voltage regulators are monolithic integrated circuits designed as fixed-voltage regulators for a wide variety of applications including local, on-card regulation. These regulators employ internal current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe-area compensation. With adequate heatsinking the MC78xxCT can deliver output currents in excess of 1.5 ampere. Although designed primarily as a fixed voltage regulator, these devices can be used with external components to obtain adjustable voltages with currents.
