Does the 78M05 need a heatsink?
At higher load currents it dissipates noticeable heat. Use a generous copper pad on the PCB or add a heatsink to keep the regulator within its temperature limits.
What input voltage should I supply?
The input must be higher than 5V by the regulator's dropout margin, usually around 2V or more. Check the datasheet for the input range and recommended capacitors.
