I was just curious if their is a guideline as to when I would be able to use the , for example, 7805L (looks like a transistor) and when I would have to switch to the 7805T (has a heatsink). I am designing a poject right now and didn't know which to use.
If their is a guideline, would it be similar for 7812 also?
Thanks!
