Description

The L79XXC series of three-terminal negative regulators is available in TO-220, TO-220FP and D 2PAK 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 L78XX positive standard series, they are particularly suited for split power supplies. If adequate heat sinking is provided, they can deliver over 1.5 A output current. Although designed primarily as fixed voltage regulators, these devices can be used with external components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents. TO-220FP D2PAK TO-220 Table 1. Device summary

  1. Load and line regulation are spec ified at constant junction temperature. Changes in VO due to heating effects must be

taken into account separately. Pulse testing with low duty cycle is used.

taken into account separately. Pulse testing with low duty cycle is used. Table 8. Electrical characteristics of L7920C (refer to the test circuits, TJ = 0 to 125 °C, VI = -29 V,

taken into account separately. Pulse testing with low duty cycle is used.

6 Application information

  1. To specify an output voltage, substitute voltage value for "XX".
  2. Required for stability. For value give n, capacitor must be solid tantalum. If aluminium electrolytic are used,
  3. To improve transient response. If large capacitors are used, a high current diode from input to output

(1N4001 or similar) should be introduced to protect the device from momentary input short circuit. (*) Against potential latch-up problems. Figure 4. Fixed output regulator Figure 5. Split power supply (± 15 V - 1 A)

Package mechanical data L79xxC

7 Package mechanical data

In order to meet environmental requirements, ST offers these devices in ECOPACK® packages. These packages have a lead-free second level interconnect. The category of second Level Interconnect is marked on the package and on the inner box label, in compliance with JEDEC Standard JESD97. The maximum ratings related to soldering conditions are also marked on the inner box label. ECOPACK is an ST trademark. ECOPACK specifications are available at: www.st.com.
