L4941BV

STMicroelectronics · Linear Voltage Regulators (LDO) · TO-220AB-3

L4941BV from STMicroelectronics, in a TO-220AB-3. 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; forward input voltage is rated to 30 V absolute maximum, with a 16 V input voltage limit stated in the electrical characteristics and reverse input voltage rated to -15 V.
2 GROUND power_in Ground reference for the regulator, connected to the tab on the TO-220 package.
3 OUTPUT power_out Regulated 5 V output (4.8 V to 5.2 V) delivering up to 1 A, with internal current limiting and short circuit protection.
