Replacement voltage regulator?

[Joel Moore]

We broke a voltage regulator off one of our MD888's.  The part # is KA7810.

The only place that sells these (that we frequent) is Mouser.  We'd like to order something from Allied since we already buy other stuff from them.  Is there another part we can use in place of this that might be more common?

Most 7810 regulator which is TO220 packaging can be used. E.g. LM7810 will be OK. It should be easily available from most electronic store.

So this one:

should be OK to use?

Yep, that's should work as long as you purchase the TO-220 model.
