The schematic below shows a 6V stable power supply circuit using LM7806 IC.

How to Safely Long Run in a Circuit:

To reliably run LM7806 IC for long life in your circuits you must use a suitable heatsink with the IC, do not exceed the input voltage from 35V DC, do not drive load of more than 1.5A through this IC and do not operate below 0 centigrade and above +125 centigrade and always store in temperature between -65 to +150 centigrade.
