Three-Terminal Positive Fixed Voltage Regulators: Semiconductor Technical Data
Three-Terminal Positive Fixed Voltage Regulators: Semiconductor Technical Data
These voltage regulators are monolithic integrated circuits designed as
fixed–voltage regulators for a wide variety of applications including local, THREE–TERMINAL
on–card regulation. These regulators employ internal current limiting, POSITIVE FIXED
thermal shutdown, and safe–area compensation. With adequate heatsinking
they can deliver output currents in excess of 1.0 A. Although designed VOLTAGE REGULATORS
primarily as a fixed voltage regulator, these devices can be used with
SEMICONDUCTOR
external components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents.
