Vcc Supply

VCC supply schematic This is a straight-forward design. It is a basic 3-terminal 78XX series regulator circuit.

Microchip more correctly calls it Vdd, but I'm in the habit of calling it Vcc, so I'm going to stay with my convention. It is more appropriately called Vdd in a CMOS circuit, but I am using both TTL and CMOS here, so I chose one. Simply put, Vcc here means Vdd, and also means +5V.
