The L7805ACD2T from STMicroelectronics is a fixed 5V linear voltage regulator in a D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package, designed to deliver a stable 1.5A output current with an input voltage range up to 35V. This obsolete but robust regulator features low dropout voltage (2V typical at 1A) and high PSRR (68dB at 120Hz), ensuring reliable performance in noisy environments. It operates within a wide temperature range (0°C to 125°C), making it suitable for industrial and automotive applications. The device includes over-temperature and short-circuit protection, enhancing system durability.
The L7805ACD2T is a high-performance linear regulator offering precision, durability, and protection features, despite its obsolete status. Its 1.5A output, low dropout, and robust thermal management make it a preferred choice for demanding applications. While newer alternatives exist, this regulator remains a trusted solution for industrial, automotive, and legacy systems requiring reliable 5V power. Engineers value its simplicity, efficiency, and compliance with environmental standards, ensuring long-term viability in critical designs.
