Yes, TO220 7805 or LM8705 but you may be suprised about how much power is wasted as heat inside it. It is a good idea to do the math before bying. I spent a few hours to design my own +5 volt step down converter only to discover I could have bought locally but I also got suprised because my own design is cheaper although almost certainly with some higher losses. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
