78L05G-AB3-R

UTC Unisonic Tech · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-89-3

78L05G-AB3-R from UTC Unisonic Tech, in a SOT-89-3. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 OUT power_out Regulated +5V output. Delivers up to 100mA with typical dropout of 1.7V. A 0.1uF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND is recommended close to the pin for stability and transient response.
2 GND power_in Common ground reference for both input and output. Also serves as the thermal path to the PCB copper pattern for SOT-89 heat dissipation (PD = 350mW).
3 IN power_in Unregulated DC input. Recommended range 7V-20V for the 5V variant (absolute maximum 30V for 5-9V output devices). A 0.33uF bypass capacitor to GND close to the pin is recommended when the regulator is far from the input filter.

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: 78L05G-AB3-R
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-89-3
  • 3D model: SOT-89-3 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: 78l05g-ab3-r-etched.step / 78l05g-ab3-r-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); 78l05g-ab3-r.step / 78l05g-ab3-r.glb are the bare package body.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
78l05g-ab3-r.step 57 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
78l05g-ab3-r-etched.step 1.7 MB You want the part with 78L05G-AB3-R already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 449 faces against 42 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
