Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key electrical specifications of the L78M24ABDT-TR?

The L78M24ABDT-TR is a fixed 24 V linear regulator with a 500 mA maximum output current and an input voltage range of 27 V to 38 V (absolute maximum 40 V). It has a typical dropout voltage of 2 V, meaning the input must be at least 26 V to maintain regulation. Line regulation is specified at 0.1% maximum, ensuring stable output across the full input range. The device is packaged in a DPAK-3 surface-mount format with a 12-week factory lead time.

What is the DPAK-3 package and what are its thermal characteristics?

The DPAK-3 (Decawatt Package, 3-pin) is a surface-mount power package with a large metal tab on the bottom that serves as both a heat spreader and an electrical connection (typically collector or drain). It is also known as the TO-252 package. The exposed tab can be soldered directly to the PCB copper plane or a thermal pad, providing a low thermal resistance path for heat removal. This allows the L78M24ABDT-TR to dissipate sufficient power to deliver 500 mA continuously without an external heatsink in most applications.

What applications is the L78M24ABDT-TR best suited for?

This regulator is ideal for industrial applications that run from a 24 V DC bus powered by an unregulated supply, including PLCs, HMI panels, industrial sensors, relay coil drivers, and HVAC control boards. It is also used in commercial building automation, security system power supplies, and 24 V instrumentation circuits. The combination of a 38 V maximum input, stable 24 V output, and medium current capability makes it well-suited wherever a linear post-regulator is needed after a switched-mode pre-converter.

What does the -TR suffix mean in the L78M24ABDT-TR part number?

The -TR suffix indicates tape-and-reel packaging, meaning the L78M24ABDT-TR is supplied on reels for use with automated surface-mount assembly pick-and-place equipment. This packaging format is standard for high-volume PCB manufacturing. The 'ABD' portion of the name denotes the DPAK-3 surface-mount package variant of the L78M24 regulator series, distinguishing it from through-hole versions such as the TO-220 packaged L78M24CV.

Are there alternative voltage regulators compatible with the L78M24ABDT-TR?

The L78M24ABDT-TR is part of STMicroelectronics' L78Mxx positive linear regulator family; other manufacturers offer equivalent devices such as the Texas Instruments UA7824, ON Semiconductor MC7824, and Fairchild KA7824 in similar packages. Designers should verify output voltage accuracy, input voltage range, maximum output current, dropout voltage, and package pinout when selecting a replacement. The DPAK-3 package footprint is standardized (TO-252), but thermal resistance and maximum ratings may differ between manufacturers.
