ONSEMI MC7905CTG Negative Voltage Regulator, -5V 1A, TO-220

The ONSEMI MC7905CTG is a low dropout fixed output negative voltage regulator supplied in a TO-220 package. This regulator provides a stable -5V output and is designed with a range of internal protections to deliver reliable performance in demanding conditions.

The MC7905CTG employs current limiting, thermal shutdown and safe-area compensation, making it remarkably rugged under most operating conditions. With adequate heat-sinking, it can deliver output currents in excess of 1A. The device features internal thermal overload protection, internal short-circuit current limiting, and output transistor safe area compensation, ensuring robust operation in industrial environments.
