Design Notes

  • Maintain input voltage at least 2V higher than output (dropout consideration)
  • Use input and output capacitors (e.g., 0.33µF and 0.1µF) for stability
  • Heat sinking is required for high current or high input-output voltage differential
  • Thermal shutdown protects the device under overload conditions
  • Ensure proper PCB layout to minimize noise and improve regulation

Typical Circuit Usage

  • Linear regulated power supply stages
  • Microcontroller and logic circuit power rails
  • Analog signal conditioning circuits
  • Battery-powered systems requiring regulated 8V output
  • Post-regulation after DC-DC converters

How to Choose This Part

  • Select when a fixed 8V output is required with simple implementation
  • Ideal for low-noise analog applications compared to switching regulators
  • Ensure thermal design is adequate for power dissipation
  • Use when input voltage is within safe operating limits
  • Not suitable for high-efficiency designs due to linear regulation losses

Applications

  • Power adapters and regulated DC supplies
  • Embedded systems and development boards
  • Audio and instrumentation circuits
  • Industrial control systems
  • Consumer electronics power regulation

Alternative / Equivalent Products

  • LM7808 (standard 8V regulator)
  • L7808 (STMicroelectronics equivalent)
  • KA7808 (Fairchild equivalent)
  • UA7808 (Texas Instruments version)
  • LM317 (adjustable voltage regulator alternative)
