78L18K

Shikues · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-89

78L18K from Shikues, in a SOT-89. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 OUT power_out Regulated output terminal, rated for up to 100 mA output current (IOUT 100 mA maximum).
2 GND power_in Ground (common) terminal of the regulator.
3 IN power_in Unregulated input terminal; maximum input voltage is 30 V for VOUT 4.4 to 10 V and 35 V for VOUT 12 to 18 V.
