Description
These voltage regulators are intended ascomplements to the popular MC78xx Series devices.These negative regulators are available in the same seven-voltage options as the MC78xx devices. In  addition, one extra voltage option commonly employed in MECL systems is also available in the negative MC79xx Series.

Features
• Output current in excess of 1.5 Ampere
• No external components required
