The L7805ACV-DG is an IC (integrated circuit) component that belongs to the L7800 series of linear voltage regulators. It is specifically designed to provide a fixed 5-volt output voltage with a maximum output current of 1.5 amperes. Here is an overview of its key features:
1. Voltage Regulation: The L7805ACV-DG efficiently regulates the input voltage to a stable 5-volt output voltage, making it suitable for a wide range of electronic applications.
2. Output Current Capacity: The maximum output current supported by this component is 1.5 amperes. This makes it suitable for powering various low to medium power consumption devices.
3. Thermal Shutdown: To prevent damage due to excessive heat, the L7805ACV-DG incorporates a thermal shutdown mechanism. It shuts down the regulator if the junction temperature exceeds a safe operating limit.
4. Internal Current Limiting: This component includes internal current limiting protection to protect against overload or short circuit conditions. It prevents excessive current flow that might otherwise damage the regulator.
5. Package Type: The L7805ACV-DG comes in a TO-220 package, which is a widely used package type for power linear regulators. This package provides good thermal dissipation for effective heat management.
6. Input Voltage Range: The operating input voltage range for this component is typically between 7 volts to 35 volts
