I've experimented with LM7805 analogs from NTE (the NTE960), and the large tab on top makes it obvious how to dissipate generated heat.
However, NTE also makes an LM7805 analog in a TO92 package (the NTE950). I'm a sometimes hobbyist, and I don't really know how one goes about handling the heat when inputting, say, 7 volts to such a packaged chip. Can someone point me to a good discussion or tutorial on this topic? Thanks.
