Description: LM7805 Overview: The LM7805 is a 5V adjustable linear voltage regulator integrated circuit (IC). It provides a stable, adjusted output voltage of 5V from an input source. Output Voltage Regulation: This IC features internal voltage reference and regulation circuits that maintain a consistent and accurate 5V output voltage regardless of the input voltage fluctuations within certain limits. Input Voltage Range: The LM7805 can accept input voltages from 6V to 32V, making it suitable for various power sources, such as batteries or DC power supplies. Output Current Capability: With a typical load current of up to 150mA at room temperature (25°C), this regulator is commonly used in low-power applications like LED circuits, sensors, and small electronic projects. Efficiency and Heat Dissipation: Unlike switching regulators, linear voltage regulators such as LM7805 have lower efficiency since they convert voltage through a linear process, generating heat. Therefore, efficient heat di
