• Very Small Footprint
• High Efficiency > 85%
• Self-Contained Inductor
• Internal Short-Circuit Protection
• Over-Temperature Protection
• Fast Transient Response
• Wide Input Range
The 78ST100 is a series of wide input
voltage, 3-terminal Integrated Switching
Regulators (ISRs). These ISRs have a maximum output current of 1.5A and an output
voltage that is laser trimmed to a variety of
industry standard voltages.
These 78 series regulators have excellent
line and load regulation with internal shortcircuit and over-temperature protection, are
very flexible, and may be used in a wide
variety of applications.
