Um... I have ton of 7808 and 7805 chips.
And I just want to know about performance and efficiency ?
Someone recommend LM317 as adjustable regulator always.
I think it is just a 1.25v regulator and adjust output by shift
the ground level. I think it is 7801.
Nobody tell us to use 7805.. The head room voltage just 2v.
7805 can adjustable output as LM317. it can work as current
regulator the same way as LM317.
Which one is better ?
I think 78xx is better because head room drop as low as 2v.
And the pinout is more make sense.
