#39786 - Linear Power and Temperature
I am using a National.com LM1086IS-5.0V power supply. My main probably is when the input voltage increase to 15V the LM1086 get too hot to touch. My goal is to figure out how much copper area the power supply needs to run cool to human touch approx. 30c.

My Voltage ranges from 6.5v - 15V
My Supply current is 2-3A
My Output Voltage is 5V
My cirucit consume 500mA
My Max Ambient Temperature 70 c

Any Help?
Or can you suggest a cheap power supply that can handle the same Voltages and Currents Ranges.
