Motorola MC1568G vintage dual polarity tracking voltage regulator (NOS)

The MC1568G is a vintage dual polarity tracking voltage regulator manufactured by Motorola. It's a silicon monolithic integrated circuit primarily used to provide balanced positive and negative output voltages. The "G" suffix indicates that it comes in a TO-100 metal can package with 10 pins.

This component is now considered New Old Stock (NOS) or surplus since it's no longer in active production. Due to its age and specialized nature, it is not as readily available as modern components.
