The UA78L08CLP fixed-voltage linear regulator is designed for a wide range of applications. These applications include on-card regulation for eliminating noise and distribution problems associated with single-point regulation and voltage regulation in major appliances. In addition, UA78L08CLP can be used with power-pass elements to make high-current voltage regulators. One of these regulators can deliver up to 100 mA of output current. The internal limiting and thermal-shutdown features of these regulators help to protect the device from overload.
