The NTE1924 is a monolithic voltage regulator integrated circuit in a TO3 type package designed for use in applications requiring a well regulated positive output voltage. Outstanding features include full power usage up to 1.5A of load current, internal current limiting, thermal shutdown, and safe area protection on the chip, providing protection of the series pass Darlington, under most operating conditions. A low noise, temperature stable band gap reference is the key design factor insuring excellent temperature regulation. This, coupled to a very low output impedance, insures superior performance and load regulation.
