Stabilized fixed output voltage is obtained from unstable DC input voltage with using minimum external components. 9 types of fixed output voltage are available; 5 V, 6 V, 7 V, 8 V, 9 V, 10 V, 12 V, 15 V and 18 V. They can be used widely in power circuits with current capacity up to 500 mA. +0.10 0.55 –0.05 0.10±0.10 2.30±0.10 4.60±0.10 SP-3SU Note) The package of this product will be changed to lead-free type (SP-3SUA).

Note that the relationship between IC power dissipation and the ambient temperature must follow the derating curve. 2. This IC is not suitable for car electronics equipment. ■ Electrical Characteristics at Ta = 25°C • AN78M05NSP (5 V type) The specified condition Tj = 25°C means that the test should be carried out within so short a test time (within 10 ms) that the characteristic value drift due to the chip junction temperature rise can be ignored.
