3-TERMINAL 1A POSITIVE VOLTAGE REGULATOR
General Description
The AS78XX series are three terminal positive regula-
tors designed for a wide variety of applications includ-
ing local, on-card regulation.
The AS78XX are complete with internal current limit-
ing, thermal shutdown protection, and safe-area com-
pensation which make them virtually immune from
output overload. If adequate heat sinking are provided,
these regulators can deliver output currents up to 1A.
The AS78XX are available in TO-220-3 and TO-252-2
packages.

Note 1: Stresses greater than those listed under "Absolute Maximum Ratings" may cause permanent damage to
the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions
beyond those indicated under "Recommended Operating Conditions" is not implied. Exposure to "Absolute Max-
imum Ratings" for extended periods may affect device reliability.
