A LM7815 voltage regulator is a component designed to maintain a constant voltage level, the LM78XX series of voltage regulators are designed for positive inputs and has the ability to drive the current within the circuit up to 1A. The component has three legs: Input leg which can hold up to 36VDC, a leg that leads straight to ground and an output leg with the regulated voltage. For maximum voltage regulation, adding a capacitor in parallel between the ground leg and the output leg will improve efficiency.
