PRODUCT NAME

ICF L79XX

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

3-Terminal Negative Voltage Regulator

APPLICATIONS

Logic systems

Instrumentation,

HiFi

Other solid state electronic equipment.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ICF L79XX series of three-terminal negative voltage regulator are available in the TO-220 package and with several fixed output voltages, making them useful in a wide range of applications. Each type employs internal current limiting, thermal shut down and safe operating area protection,making it essentially indestructible. If adequate heat sinking is provided, they can deliver over 1.0A output current. Although designed primarily as fixed voltage regulators, these devices can be used with external components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents.

FEATURES

Output voltage tolerances of ±5% over the temperature range

Output current of 1A

Internal thermal overload protection

Output transistor safe area protection

Internal short circuit current limit

Output voltages of -5V, -6V, -8V, -10V, -12V, -15V, -18V
