Description: 1. The 7812 Voltage Regulator Integrated Circuit (IC) is a linear, three-terminal, adjustable voltage regulator that provides a stable output voltage. 2. Output Voltage: It produces a constant +12V output voltage with a typical deviation of ±0.6% and a maximum load current of up to 1A. 3. Adjustment Range: The IC allows for easy adjustment of the output voltage through an external, single-turn potentiometer or resistor dividers. 4. Input Voltage: It accepts input voltages ranging from 12V to 35V, making it suitable for a wide range of power supplies and applications. 5. Protection Circuit: The 7812 IC includes internal over-current and thermal protection circuits that protect the device against damage caused by overloading or excessive temperatures. 6. Quiescent Current Consumption: This voltage regulator has a quiescent current consumption of approximately 30mA, which is relatively low for its output power capabilities. 7. Efficiency and Heat Dissipation: It achieves an efficie
