These three terminal negative regulators are supplied in a hermetically sealed
metal package whose outline is similar to the industry standard T O-220 plastic
package. All protective features are designed into the circuit, including thermal
shutdown, current limiting and safe-area control. With heat sinking, they can deliver
over 1.5 amps of output current. These units feature internally trimmed output
voltages to 2% of nominal voltage. Standard voltages are -5V, -12V, and -15V .
However, other voltages are available up to -24 volts. These units are ideally suited
for Military applications where a hermetically sealed package is required.

Input bypass capacitors are recommended for stable operation of the OM7900 series of regulators over
the input voltage and output current ranges. Output bypass capacitors will improve the transient
response of the regulator.
The bypass capacitors, (2.2µF on the input, 1µF on the output) should be ceramic or solid tantalum which
have good high frequency characteristics. If aluminum electrolytics are used, their values should be 10µF
or larger. The bypass capacitors should be mounted with the shortest leads, and if possible, directly
across the regulator terminals.
