The NTE958 fixed–voltage regulator is a monolithic integrated circuit in a TO220 type package designed for use in a wide variety of applications including local, on–card regulation. This regulator employs internal current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe–area compensation. With adequate heat-sinking it can deliver output currents in excess of 1.0 ampere. Although designed primarily as a fixed voltage regulator, this device can be used with external components to obtain adjustable voltages and currents.

Features:

● Output Current in Excess of 1.0 Ampere

● No External Components Reguired

● Internal Thermal Overload Protection

● Internal Short–Circuit Current Limiting

● Output Transistor Safe–Area Compensation
