3-Terminal Negative Regulators
The LM79XX series of 3-terminal regulators is available with
fixed output voltages of 5V, 12V, and 15V. These devices
need only one external component a compensation capacitor
at the output. The LM79XX series is packaged in the
TO-220 power package and is capable of supplying 1.5A of
These regulators employ internal current limiting safe area
protection and thermal shutdown for protection against virtually
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.
