Linear voltage regulators can deliver over 0.5A output power
A recent line of linear voltage regulators that can deliver over 0.5 amps of output power, the LVR-7815 series, has been announced by DATEL. The series is housed in a hermetically sealed ceramic package that makes it impervious to humidity and a suitable choice to be used in applications where humidity is a concern.
The series is a 15V positive fixed voltage regulator. Each unit is 100% tested for all grades and across one of three standard temperature ranges: 0 to +70; -40 to +100; and -55 to +125°C. All protective features are designed into the circuit including thermal shutdown, current limiting and safe-area control. The regulators are internally trimmed to provide a nominal voltage accuracy of 1%. Other output voltages, ranging from +1.8, +2.4, +5V, are also available.
All the LVR-7815 grades are manufactured on the same production line at DATEL’s USA facility, which is certified to MIL-PRF-38534 standards. The device is available in a commercial version as well as military versions. RoHS and non-RoHS configurations are available.
