DESCRIPTION
The L7800A series of three-terminal positive regulators is available in TO-220 and TO-3 packages
and with 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 shut-down and safe area protection, making it essentially indestructible. If adequate
heat sinking is provided, they can deliver over 1A
output current. Although designed primarily as fixed
voltage regulators, these devices can be used with
external components to obtain adjustable voltages
and currents.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
In many low current applications, compensation capacitors are not required. However, it is recommended that the regulator input be bypassed with a
capacitor if the regulator is connected to the power
supply filter with long wire lengths, or if the output
load capacitance is large. An input bypass capacitor
should be selected to provide good high-frequency
characteristics to insure stable operation under all
load conditions. A 0.33µF or larger tantalum, mylar,
or other capacitor having low internal impedance at
high frequencies should be chosen. The bypass capacitor should be mounted with the shortest
possible leads directly across the regulators input
terminals. Normally good construction techniques
should be used to minimize ground loops and lead
resistance drops since the regulator has no external
sense lead.
Figure 4 : Current Regulator.
Figure 5 : Adjustable Output Regulator.
The L7800A Series of fixed voltage regulators are
designed with Thermal Overload Protection that
shuts down the circuit when subjected to an excessive power overload condition, Internal Short-circuit Protection that limits the maximum current the
circuit will pass, and Output Transistor Safe-Area
Compensation that reduces the output short-circuit
current as the voltage across the pass transistor is
increased.

The addition of an operational amplifier allows adjustment to higher or intermediate values while retaining regulation characteristics. The minimum
voltage obtainable with this arrangement is 2.0V
greater than the regulator voltage.

Figure 7 : Short-circuit Protection.
The circuitof figure 6can be modified to provide supply protection against short circuit by adding a shortcircuit sense resistor, R sc, and an additional PNP
transistor. The current sensing PNP must be able to
handle the short-circuit current of the three-terminal
regulator. Therefore, a four-ampere plastic power
transistor is specified.
