The 79L05 is a fixed -5V negative linear voltage regulator from Shenzhen Slkormicro Semicon, delivering up to 100mA of output current. Housed in a SOT-89 package, it features a dropout voltage of 1.7V at 40mA and a quiescent current of 6mA. With 49dB of ripple rejection at 120Hz, it ensures clean negative power for analog and mixed-signal circuits.
- Negative -5V Output: Essential for bipolar supply designs in analog circuits.
- 100mA Output Current: Sufficient for op-amps, sensors, and display biasing.
- Low Dropout (1.7V @ 40mA): Maintains regulation with minimal headroom.
- High PSRR (49dB @ 120Hz): Reduces power supply noise for sensitive audio and measurement applications.
Negative Rail for Op-Amps
The -5V output is perfect for providing a negative supply rail to operational amplifiers in analog signal processing circuits, ensuring proper bipolar operation.
Biasing LCD Displays
Many LCD panels require a negative bias voltage; the 79L05 delivers a stable -5V rail with 100mA capability for display driver circuits.
Audio Equipment Power Supply
In audio mixers and preamps, a clean -5V rail is essential for symmetrical power; the 49dB PSRR at 120Hz minimizes hum.
Industrial Sensor Conditioning
For sensors that output negative voltages, this regulator provides a reference rail for signal conditioning and level shifting.
Telecom Line Drivers
Negative voltage is often needed in telecom interfaces; the 79L05 supplies a regulated -5V for line driver ICs.
Test & Measurement Equipment
Benchtop instruments requiring a bipolar supply can use this negative LDO alongside a positive regulator for symmetric rails.
