Overview

Description

L7812ABV-DG is a fixed +12 V positive voltage regulator in ST’s L78xx family. It regulates a higher DC input down to a stable 12 V output. The ABV-DG variant denotes a specific product/package variant (DG).
Key points:
- Output: +12 V fixed
- Current: typically about 1 A (some variants up to 1.5 A with adequate heat sinking)
- Input voltage range: up to around 30–35 V; dropout ~2 V at rated current
- Protection: thermal shutdown, current limiting, safe-operating-area protection
- Pinout (common TO-220 style): Pin 1 = Input, Pin 2 = Ground, Pin 3 = Output
- Stability: requires input and output decoupling capacitors (e.g., 0.33 µF input, 0.1 µF output; larger electrolytics for transients)
- Applications: simple, low-cost 12 V regulation for microcontrollers, sensors, and other circuits
Note: check the exact datasheet for the DG package variant to confirm current rating, input range, and pinout.

Features

L7812ABV-DG features (concise):
- Fixed 12 V output
- Maximum output current: up to ~1.5 A
- Input voltage range up to about 35 V
- Low dropout around 2 V at 1 A
- 3-terminal regulator in DG package (TO-220AB); tab tied to output
- Internal current limit and thermal/shutdown protection
- Short-circuit protection
- Good line and load regulation
- Wide operating temperature (industrial/automotive range: roughly -40°C to +125°C)
- Requires external input and output capacitors for stability and transient response
Note: Use appropriate input/output capacitors as recommended in the datasheet.

Package

TO-220 (through-hole) three-terminal package.

Pinout

- Pin count: 3 pins
- Function: Fixed positive 12V linear voltage regulator (L7812ABV). Pinout (facing the front): left = Vin, middle = Ground, right = Vout (regulated +12V).

Manufacturer
