The can is marked with the Motorola logo, \"MC78L 08CG,\" and \"7625.\" Date code 7625 places manufacture in week 25 of 1976. It comes from an original bag with a typed ECG label reading \"ECG-981 MC-78L08CG IC-Pos Vr. 8V 100mA.\" Never installed.\u003cbr\u003eThe MC78L series is Motorola's 100mA low-current three-terminal positive regulator line. The \"C\" grade is the ±10% output tolerance selection, and the \"G\" suffix denotes the metal-can package.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeatures:\u003cbr\u003eFixed 8V positive output\u003cbr\u003eUp to 100mA output current\u003cbr\u003e30V maximum input voltage\u003cbr\u003e1.7V typical dropout\u003cbr\u003e55dB typical ripple rejection\u003cbr\u003eInternal short-circuit current limiting\u003cbr\u003eInternal thermal overload protection\u003cbr\u003eNo external components required in many applications\u003cbr\u003eHermetic TO-39 metal can with gold-plated leads\u003cbr\u003eOriginal Motorola manufacture, 1976 date code\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCompatibility:\u003cbr\u003eDirect replacement for MC78L08CG and other 78L08 8V 100mA positive regulators in metal-can positions. Cross-references to ECG981 \/ NTE981, which are TO-92 plastic parts with the same 8V 100mA rating. Current equivalents such as the onsemi MC78L08ACP and TI UA78L08 are also TO-92, so check the package and pinout before substituting between the metal-can and TO-92 versions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eQ\u0026amp;A\u003cbr\u003eQ: What is the MC78L08CG?\u003cbr\u003eA: A Motorola 8V, 100mA three-terminal positive voltage regulator in a TO-39 metal can.\u003cbr\u003eQ: What replaces an MC78L08CG?\u003cbr\u003eA: Any 78L08 8V 100mA regulator, including NTE981, onsemi MC78L08ACP and TI UA78L08. Those are TO-92 plastic, so confirm pinout and fit.\u003cbr\u003eQ: What is the minimum input voltage?\u003cbr\u003eA: Keep the input about 2V above the 8V output (around 10V or more). Maximum input is 30V.\u003cbr\u003eQ: Is this a transistor?\u003cbr\u003eA: No. It is a voltage regulator IC in a transistor-style metal can.\u003cbr\u003eQ: How old is this part?\u003cbr\u003eA: Date code 7625, which places manufacture in 1976.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDISCLAIMER\u003cbr\u003eItem is new old stock, sold as pictured.
