DESCRIPTION
The L7900 series of three-terminal negative regulators is available in TO-220, TO-220FP,TO-3 and D2PAK packages and several fixed output voltages, making it useful in a wide range of applications. These regulators can provide local on-card regulation, eliminating the distribution
problems associated with single point regulation; furthermore, having the same voltage option as
the L7800 positive standard series, they are particularly suited for split power supplies. In addition, the -5.2V is also available for ECL system. If adequate heat sinking is provided, they can deliver over 1.5A output current.
■ OUTPUT CURRENT UP TO 1.5A
■ OUTPUT VOLTAGES OF -5; -5.2; -6; -8; -9;-12; -15; -18; -20; -22; -24V
