I am working on a circuit. I have an IC bridge rectifier in place for ac to dc conversion at the proper voltage and amperage. I understand that the nte 7077 voltage regulator is for regulating voltage at 110 volts + or - .8 volts @ 1 amp max. This is a 5 pin IC regulator. I do not understand what the 5 pins are for. They show Pin 1 common ground. I get that. Pin 2 base? where would that be connected to. Pin 3 input? I assume that is the output of my bridge rectifier dc voltage which would vary with the ac voltage. Pin 4 output. I assume that is the 110 volt regulated supply. And Pin 5 output control? Do I need this? I want 110 volts regulated nothing else. could you help me understand how many of the pins I need to use and how to connect them to. Much appreciated! I'm new to the forum so I hope I'm posting in the right place. Thanks Again. Roy Andenmatten
