CJ78L18C-P3T-ARG

Changjing · Linear Voltage Regulators (LDO) · SOT-89-3L

CJ78L18C-P3T-ARG from Changjing, in a SOT-89-3L. 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 18 V output, 17.46 to 18.54 V at TJ = 25°C for the ±3% grade (this MPN is listed in the ±3% grade table) and at least 100 mA output current; the datasheet recommends a 0.1 µF COUT that should not exceed 20 µF.
2 GND power_in Regulator ground, the reference for CIN (between IN and GND) and COUT (between OUT and GND), which should be placed as close to the pins as possible.
3 IN power_in Input to the device, rated at 35 V maximum for the 18 V version (absolute maximum input voltage 36 V), with a 0.33 µF CIN recommended.
