The document describes the NEC uPC7800A series as monolithic three-terminal positive voltage regulators featuring internally current limiting, thermal shut down, and output transistor safe operating area protection. These devices are designed to be essentially indestructible with improved ripple rejection ratio, line regulation, load regulation, and quiescent current compared to conventional models.
| Output Current | 1 A |
|---|---|
| Operating Ambient Temperature Range | -30 to +85 °C |
| Quiescent Current | 4.3 mA (typical) |
The series includes over current protection, SOA protection, and thermal shut down.
No, the devices are designed to be essentially indestructible with internal protections.
