TEXAS INSTRUMENTS Linear Voltage Regulator 1.5A TO-220

The TEXAS INSTRUMENTS Adjustable Linear Voltage Regulator is a highly reliable 3-terminal positive voltage regulator capable of supplying in excess of 1.5A over an output range of 1.25V to 37V. Offering 1% accuracy, this component provides line and load regulation superior to standard fixed regulators, making it a versatile choice for various electronic applications.

Designed with robust safety features, it includes full overload protection such as over-current, thermal overload, and safe area protection. Crucially, all overload protection circuitry remains fully functional even if the adjustment terminal is accidentally disconnected. The regulator boasts a typical line regulation of 0.005%/V, an input-output differential of up to 40V, and an impressive 80dB power supply rejection ratio at 120Hz.
