Texas Instruments Fixed Linear Voltage Regulator 5V 500mA SOT-223-4

The Texas Instruments Fixed Linear Voltage Regulator is designed for a wide range of power management applications, including on-card regulation to eliminate noise and distribution problems associated with single-point regulation. This reliable device delivers up to 500mA of output current with a fixed output voltage of 5V, accommodating an input voltage range from 7V to 25V.

Engineered for robustness, the regulator features internal current-limiting and thermal-shutdown capabilities, making it essentially immune to overload conditions. It also includes output transistor safe-area compensation and high power-dissipation capability. Furthermore, this component requires no external components for standard operation, though it can be paired with external parts to achieve adjustable output voltages and currents, or to serve as the power-pass element in a precision regulator.

Classified as a green product with no Sb/Br, this surface-mount device comes in a SOT-223-4 package with 4 pins. It operates reliably across a wide temperature range from -40°C to 125°C, making it suitable for demanding environments.
