How to Use the -5V 1A Linear Voltage Regulator

1. Connect the input pin to a suitable negative voltage source (typically more negative than -5V).
2. Connect the ground pin to your circuits ground.
3. The output pin will provide a stable -5V DC up to 1A for your devices.
4. For best performance, add small bypass capacitors (like 0.33F at input and 0.1F at output) near the regulators pins if your project allows.

Perfect For:

• DIY electronics projects
• Audio equipment and amplifiers
• Retro and vintage computer repairs
• General negative voltage power supplies
