The L78L12ABD-TR is a three-terminal positive linear voltage regulator from the STMicroelectronics L78L series, housed in an 8-pin SOIC surface-mount package. It provides a fixed 12 V output with a maximum current of 100 mA. The device supports input voltages up to 35 V and operates within a junction temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C. Key electrical characteristics include a typical quiescent current of 6.5 mA and a supply voltage rejection ratio of 42 dB at 120 Hz.
Verify the specific suffix 'TR' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm the 'AB' designation corresponds to the ±4% output voltage tolerance and extended industrial temperature range. Ensure the SO-8 package variant matches the required PCB footprint dimensions provided in the mechanical data section of the official datasheet.
Select this component for applications requiring a compact surface-mount solution with moderate current capabilities. The SO-8 package facilitates automated assembly while maintaining adequate thermal dissipation through internal pin commutation. Consider the 100 mA limit and ensure sufficient heat sinking is available for the expected power dissipation levels under load.
This part belongs to the L78Lxx family of low-power positive voltage regulators. Unlike the higher-current L78M or L78 series, the L78L series is optimized for smaller packages like TO-92, SOT-89, and SO-8. The L78L12ABD-TR specifically utilizes the SO-8 form factor, distinguishing it from through-hole variants such as the L78L12ABZ.
