Description
TO-220
TO-3
The L78Sxx series of three-terminal positive
regulators is available in TO-220 and TO-3
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. Each type
employs internal current limiting, thermal shutdown and safe area protection, making it
essentially indestructible. If adequate heat sinking
is provided, they can deliver over 2 A output
current. Although designed primarily as fixed
voltage regulators, these devices can be used
with external components to obtain adjustable
voltages and currents.

Figure 37. Protection against input short-circuit with high capacitance loads
1. Application with high capacitance loads and an output voltage greater than 6 volts need an external diode
(see Figure 30 on page 28) to protect the device against input short circuit. In this case the input voltage
falls rapidly while the output voltage decrease slowly. The capacitance discharges by means of the BaseEmitter junction of the series pass transistor in the regulator. If the energy is sufficiently high, the transistor
may be destroyed. The external diode by-passes the current from the IC to ground.
