The UA78M05QDCYRG4Q1 is an Automotive Catalogue 500mA Fixed 5V Positive Voltage Regulator designed for a wide range of applications. These applications include on-card regulation for elimination of noise and distribution problems associated with single-point regulation. This regulator can deliver up to 500mA of output current. The internal current-limiting and thermal-shutdown features of this regulator essentially make them immune to overload. In addition to use as fixed-voltage regulators, this device can be used with external components to obtain adjustable output voltages and current and also can be used as the power-pass element in precision regulator.
