It’s become a matter of debate as to precisely when the 78xx series of linear regulators were designed or when they hit the market for that matter. Some will tell you their lineage can be traced back ...

Pin-compatible with 78xx linear regulators, V-Infinity’s V78XX-1000 series of 1-A switching regulators deliver efficiencies of up to 95% Pin-compatible with 78xx linear regulators, V-Infinity’s ...

This article presents linear regulators and the computation of its efficiency. It also describes the advantages and other properties of a linear regulator, as well as the low drop out (LDO) regulator, ...

The V78XX-500 series of dc switching regulators provide efficiencies up to 96% and are pin-and function-compatible with 78xx linear regulators. The regulators do not require heatsinks making them ...
