Product Summary

The L78L08 is a positive voltage regulator. The L78L08 three-terminal positive regulator employs internal current limiting and thermal shutdown, making them essentially indestructible. If adequate heat-sink of the L78L08 is provided, it can deliver up to 100mA output current. They are intended as fixed voltage regulators in a wide range of applications including local or on-card regulation for elimination of noise and distribution problems associated with single-point regulation. In addition, it can be used with power pass element to make high-current voltage regulator. The L78L08 used as Zener diode/resistor combination replacement, offers an effective output impedance improvement of typically two orders of magnitude, along with lower quiescent current and lower noise.
