    hittman, any electronic parts store. allelectronics, jameco, digikey, mouser, sparkfun. The part you are looking for is a 7805 5v regulator. There are also numerous companies that make these regulators besides TI.

    No other company gives you 5 samples for free + free shipping, that is why I don't mention any others.

    I did see them at RatShack for about $1.50, but as Warp said you can get 5 free samples (after filling out lots of BS forms), with free shipping from TI, I did.

    Warp, Thank you! I just got on the texas instrument site and ordered my free samples. That is awesome. I really appreciate your help.

    The TI has a LDO of less than .5v. The other regulators such as the much cheaper LM7805 have a large drop out of over 2v and it makes them entirely unsuitable for mods.

    If you are getting 5v regulators, get the TI version.

    FWIW...The 7805 and the TI UCC383TDKTTT-5 are two different animals....

    The TI one is a low-voltage dropout regulator. The 7805 is not.
