LM78L05ACMX/NOPB datasheet by Texas Instruments

LM78L05ACMX/NOPB Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the LM78L05ACMX/NOPB can handle?
  The maximum input voltage is 35V, but it's recommended to keep it below 30V for reliable operation.
• How much current can the LM78L05ACMX/NOPB supply?
  The LM78L05ACMX/NOPB can supply up to 100mA of output current.
• What is the dropout voltage of the LM78L05ACMX/NOPB?
  The dropout voltage is typically around 2V, which means the input voltage should be at least 2V higher than the output voltage for proper regulation.
• Is the LM78L05ACMX/NOPB short-circuit protected?
  Yes, the LM78L05ACMX/NOPB has built-in short-circuit protection, which limits the output current in case of a short circuit.
• Can I use the LM78L05ACMX/NOPB in a high-temperature environment?
  The LM78L05ACMX/NOPB is rated for operation up to 125°C, but its performance may degrade at high temperatures. It's recommended to derate the output current and voltage accordingly.
