L78M12CDT-TR

Voltage Regulators - Linear

Linear Regulator12V500mADPAK

The L78M12CDT-TR is a reliable 12V, 500mA linear regulator in a DPAK package, ideal for local on-card power regulation.

Best for

  • Local on-card voltage regulation
  • General purpose 12V power supplies

Avoid if

  • High efficiency is required (use switching regulators instead)
  • Input-output voltage differential is very high without heat sinking

Check before use

  • Thermal dissipation requirements
  • Input voltage range
