Hi All,
this is really good news!
LM78XX have been used for many years and for many applications.
Especially supplying low voltage circuits up to 1A they have become "workhorses" for everyone.
The bitter pill: The higher the difference between input and output voltage the bigger the problems because of of heat dissipation.
The K78XX series is just equivalent to the LM78XX series, with a larger body, but pin pitch being the same (2.54mm=1/10").
The maximum efficiency is given as high as 97%.
Here is a data sheet.
Enjoy!
