78M12A
Slkor SLKORMICRO Elec · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · TO-252
78M12A from Slkor SLKORMICRO Elec, in a TO-252. 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 | Input | power_in | Unregulated input voltage to the regulator; the datasheet gives absolute maximum input voltages of 35V for VO = 5V to 18V and 40V for VO = 24V. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Common ground reference for the regulator, carrying the quiescent current (typically 4.0 to 4.2 mA for the 12V version). |
| 3 | Output | power_out | Regulated 12V output (78M12A) rated for up to 0.5A output current, with short-circuit current typically 300 mA and peak current typically 700 mA. |
