STMicroelectronics L78M24CV, 1 Low Dropout Voltage, Voltage Regulator 500mA, 5 → 24 V 3-Pin, TO-220

The STMicroelectronics regulator, This regulator can provide local on-card regulation, eliminating the distribution problems associated with single point regulation. Each type employs internal current limiting, thermal shutdown and safe area protection, resulting it essentially indestructible. If adequate heat sinking is provided, they can deliver over 0.5 A output current. Although designed primarily as fixed voltage regulators, these devices can be used with external components to obtain adjustable voltage and currents.

Thermal overload protection
Short circuit protection
Output transition SOA protection
