The NCP7800 series consists of 3 pin, fixed output, positive linear
voltage regulators, suitable for a wide variety of applications.
These regulators are extremely rugged, incorporating internal
current limiting, thermal shutdown and safe-area compensation. With
adequate heat sinking they can deliver output currents in excess of
1.0 A. Designed as direct replacements for the popular MC7800
family, these products offer enhanced ESD protection.
