TA78L24F(TE12L,F)

The TA78L24F(TE12L,F) is a low-drop positive voltage regulator from Toshiba with integrated protection and low noise. It is a reliable and versatile voltage regulator suitable for applications in a wide range of areas, and is designed to deliver high performance and regulatory compliance in applications such as automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the TA78L24F(TE12L,F).

The TA78L24F(TE12L,F) belongs to the Voltage Regulators - Linear, category of PMICs. A linear regulator is a device that regulates the output voltage of a power supply to a fixed output voltage based on a reference voltage applied to its input. It maintains an output voltage that is at all times equal to or lower than the input voltage. Linear voltage regulators offer a simpler, lower cost alternative to switching regulators for constant, low power load requirements. They are also ideal for use in low power, low noise circuits.

The TA78L24F(TE12L,F) is a low-drop positive linear regulator, which is a device that reduces the output voltage from a higher input voltage to a lower output voltage. It provides both over-current protection (OCP) and current limitation (CL). The OCP monitors the output current and shuts down the device when the output current becomes too high. The CL prevents large output voltage drops when the device is operating at a high load. It also provides superb optical performance, low output voltage noise, and low input voltage dropout.

The TA78L24F(TE12L,F) is well suited to a variety of applications such as automotive, medical and industrial electronics. It can be used in a wide range of circuits and devices to provide a reliable and stable DC voltage output, including automotive electronics, industrial controllers, and classroom audio systems. In automotive applications, it can be used for fuel injection control systems or for audio system power supplies. It can also be used in LCD monitors as a low-drop power supply for backlight inverters, or as a power supply for microprocessor control circuits.

In terms of its working principle, the TA78L24F(TE12L,F) is designed to provide voltage regulation under a wide range of input/output conditions. It features an integrated p-channel power MOSFET device (PMOS) that works in combination with two resistors. When the input voltage is greater than the output voltage, the power MOSFET is turned on to reduce the output voltage. When the input voltage is lower than the output voltage, the MOSFET is turned off, thus allowing the output voltage to remain constant. It also features an over-current protection (OCP) circuit to protect the device from damage due to excessive current drawn from the output.

The TA78L24F(TE12L,F) is a versatile and reliable voltage regulator that is suitable for a variety of applications in the automotive, medical, and industrial markets. It provides a simple, low-cost alternative to switching regulators for constant, low-power requirements and offers excellent optical performance, low output voltage noise, and low input voltage dropout. It combines the advantages of linear regulators with over-current protection and current limitation to ensure that it can operate reliably under a wide range of input/output conditions.
