'd use a variable regulator  like the LM-317 in all it's various packages 
epending on load and dissapation requirements.

 ask because you cannot use a 7812 regulator on a 12V (or 13.8V source).  
cording to the spec sheet, the 7812 requires 14.5V to maintain line 
gulation. Basically the 7812 was not meant for use in an application like 
urs.  It was meant to regulate an input of 15 to 35V down to 12.

s the application to eliminate a small battery on the radio for use with an ac 
ins source or a dc 12v of the vehicle?

 know this is a bit off topic but with all the knowledgeable guys here when it 
mes to some of  the new stuff, I hope someone can help.
 have put together a battery eliminator for use of my HT in the car, built into 
 gutted battery pack. I have all the components selected including ferrite 
ads for the + - leads from the cigar lighter which is fused at 2A, fed to a 
12 regulator having in and out capacitors as recommended in the applications 
ge from the spec sheet.
t has come to my attention that I could protect the input from EMI RFI and 
rge by adding a TVS diode in the power leads. After studying the wealth of 
formation available on the INET, I am so confused about how to choose the 
propriate diode. The filters that Mouser lists for selection of a diode have 
ft me totally in doubt. I am referring  to the INFINEON brand of  diodes.
nyone with any experience and advice to share would be greatly appreciated.
