LM78M12CT Datasheet PDF - National

●General Description

●The LM341 and LM78MXX series of three-terminal positive voltage regulators employ built-in current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe-operating area protection which makes them virtually immune to damage from output overloads.

●With adequate heatsinking, they can deliver in excess of 0.5A output current. Typical applications would include local (on-card) regulators which can eliminate the noise and degraded performance associated with single-point regulation.

●Features

●Output current in excess of 0.5A

●Internal short circuit current-limiting

●Output transistor safe-area compensation

●Available in TO-220, TO-39, and TO-252 D-PAK packages

●Output voltages of 5V, 12V, and 15V
