UA78: I would like to know the difference between UA family and LM family.

Part Number: UA78
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM79, UA79, , LM7800

Hi all,

I would like to know the difference between UA family and LM family.

UA78 and UA79 family become EOL, So my cutomer will replace UA family to LM78, LM79 family.

Are there any distinctive differences between each series?

I would like to explain that "Clarify the differences between family and not much different from other family."

Please tell me the characteristics of each family and if there is a clear difference.

[target product]

・UA7805CKCS → LM7805CT
・UA7805CKTTR → LM7805SX
・UA7905CKCS → LM7905CT

I would appreciate it if you could give me some helpful information by tomorrow.

Best Regards,

Ryusuke
