The L78L08ACZ-AP is a three-terminal positive voltage regulator from the L78L series by STMicroelectronics. It provides a fixed output voltage of 8 V with an output current capability up to 100 mA. The device features internal current limiting and thermal shutdown protection, ensuring robust operation under overload conditions. It operates within a junction temperature range of 0 °C to 125 °C for the AC variant. The maximum DC input voltage is rated at 30 V. The component is housed in a TO-92 package with three pins: Pin 1 is Output (VOUT), Pin 2 is Ground (GND), and Pin 3 is Input (VIN).
Verify the specific suffix 'AP' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm packaging details such as cut tape or bulk availability. Ensure the 'AC' designation matches the required ±8% output voltage tolerance and operating temperature range. Confirm that the TO-92 package aligns with the printed circuit board footprint requirements before finalizing procurement orders.
Select this component when a fixed 8 V output is required with a maximum load current of 100 mA. The AC suffix indicates an 8% voltage tolerance, which differs from the tighter 4% tolerance offered by the AB suffix. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics of the TO-92 package and the need for adequate heat sinking if operating near the maximum current limit to maintain safe junction temperatures.
This part belongs to the L78L series of three-terminal positive linear voltage regulators manufactured by STMicroelectronics. The series includes various fixed output voltages ranging from 3.3 V to 24 V. These regulators are designed for general-purpose applications where simple, reliable voltage regulation is needed without external components. The L78L series is distinct from the higher-current L78 series.
Direct pin-compatible replacements include other manufacturers' L78L08 variants in TO-92 packages, such as those from Texas Instruments or NXP, provided they meet the same electrical specifications and thermal requirements. Verify that any substitute component supports the 100 mA output current and 30 V maximum input voltage limits.
