LM78MXxX Series National | Semiconductor LM78MXX Series 3-Terminal Positive Voltage Regulators General Description The LM78M00 series of 3-terminal medium current positive voltage regulators employ internal current-limiting, thermal shutdown and safe-area compensation making them essen- tially indestructible. If adequate heat sinking is provided, they can deliver in excess of 0.5A output current. They are intended as fixed voltage regulators in a wide range of appli- cations including local (on-card) regulation for elimination of noise and distribution problems associated with single-point regulation. In addition to use as fixed voltage regulators, these devices can be used with external components to ob- tain adjustable output voltages and currents. Features @ Output current in excess of 0.5A w No external components @ Internal thermal overload protection @ Internal short circuit current-limiting m Output transistor safe-area compensation g Available in JEDEC TO-220 and TO-39 packages @ Output voltages of 5V, BV, BV, 12V, 15V, and 24V Connection Diagrams IN COMMON OUT TL/H/10053-1 Lead 8 connected tocase.

Although the internal power dissipation is limited, the junc- tion temperature must be kept below the maximum speci- fied temperature (+ 125C for LM78MXXC) in order to meet data sheet specifications. To caiculate the maximum junc- tion temperature or heat sink required, the following thermal resistance values should be used: Typ Max Typ Max Package Ade Odo Ja Ug TO-39 18 25 120 140 TO-220 3.0 5.0 60 40 Po Max = Ty Max ~ Ta * O30 + 86a T T = 1 Max" "A (without a Heat Sink) 9JA 8c = cg + Osa Solving for Ty: Ty = Ta + Pp (Osc + Oca) or = Ta + Pp 8J, (Without a Heat Sink) Load Transient Response -_ y| =. = 30 | Yo = 5.0V a, = 20 Ez a % 10 5 3 > 4 oS 2 2 5 Ss E -10 oS =2.0 0 10 20 3 4 50 = 60 TIME (4:3) TL/H/10059-6 Where: Ty = Junction Temperature Ta = Ambient Temperature Pp = Power Dissipation 4jc = Junction to Case Thermal Resistance 8ca = Case-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance cg = Case-to-Heat Sink to Resistance 8s4 = Heat Sink-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance 95a = Junction-to-Ambient Thermal Resistance Typical Applications Fixed Output Regulator 1 LM78MXX 2 (NOTE 1) TL/H/10053+7 Note 1: To specify an output voltage, substitue voltage value for KX".
