VOLTAGE REGULATOR

[schweltzer]

Hello,

Fairly new at this: building the zero-point-micro 2 board, and Im currently doing the shopping.

The parts list calls for a "LM78L05" regulator - my local parts suppliers (Banzai and newtone) only have a "78L05" - would this be a good substitute/equivalent?

Thanks for the help guys!

That should be the same part (some manufacture call it just a '78L05').
Just make sure the "L" is in there as the LM7805 or 7805 is a larger version of the 'same' chip.

And watch the pinouts for the various packaging, things are not consistent.
