7805 Datasheet (National Semiconductor) - Series Voltage Regulators

7805, Series Voltage Regulators

The LM78XX series of three terminal regulators is available with several fixed output voltages making them useful in a wide range of applications.

One of these is local on card regulation, eliminating the distribution problems associated with single point regulation.

The voltages available allow the
