This is the basic L7805 voltage regulator, a three-terminal positive regulator with a 5V fixed output voltage. This fixed regulator provides a local regulation, internal current limiting, thermal shut-down control, and safe area protection for your project. Each one of these voltage regulators can output a max current of 1.5A.
**Features:**
* Output Voltage: 5V
* Output Current: 1.5A
* Thermal Overload Protection
* Short Circuit Protection
* Output Transition SOA Protection
