L7924CV is a negative voltage regulator in the TO-220 package. It is part of the L79xx series of fixed negative voltage regulators, similar to other members of the series but designed specifically for a -24V output.
Negative Voltage Regulator: The L7924CV is designed to provide a stable negative output voltage of -24V.
The L7924CV has a fixed output voltage of -24V.
Minimum Input Voltage: The input voltage should be at least 3V higher than the output voltage, so it should be at least -27V for proper regulation.
Maximum Input Voltage: The recommended maximum input voltage is typically -35V.
The L7924CV can typically supply up to 1A of output current, depending on thermal conditions and heat dissipation.
The dropout voltage is typically around 2V. This means that the input voltage needs to be at least -26V to maintain a stable -24V output.
The L7924CV includes thermal overload protection, which helps prevent the IC from overheating and getting damaged if it exceeds its temperature limits.
