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 | INPUT | power_in | Unregulated positive DC input. Absolute maximum VI = 35 V for VO = 5 to 18 V variants. Typical operating VI = 19 V for the L7812AB (VO nominal + ~7 V headroom). Dropout voltage typ. 2 V at IO = 1 A. Bypass to GND with 0.33 uF (tantalum/ceramic) near the pin, especially if the supply filter is remote. |+| 2 | GROUND | power_in | Common ground reference for input and output. Also serves as the thermal pad / tab on the D2PAK package (electrically connected to GND). All quiescent current (~4.4 mA typ. for L7812AB) returns through this pin. Solder the tab to a copper pour for heat dissipation (RthJC = 3 °C/W, RthJA = 62.5 °C/W for D2PAK). |+| 3 | OUTPUT | power_out | Regulated +12 V DC output. L7812AB tolerance is +/-2% (11.75 to 12.25 V at TJ = 25 °C). Supplies up to 1 A continuously (1.5 A peak with sufficient heat sinking); internally current-limited (short-circuit current typ. 0.2 A at VI = 35 V). Bypass to GND with 0.1 uF ceramic close to the pin to improve transient response. Minimum load current for regulation is 5 mA. |++## Key specifications++| Parameter | Value |+|---|---|+| Manufacturer | STMicroelectronics |+| Package | TO-263-2 |+| Category | PMIC |+| Pins | 3 |++## Ordering variants++- `L7812ABD2T-TR`+- `L7812ABD2T-TRV`+- `L7812ABD2T-TRV-DG`+- `L7812ABD2T-TRP`+- `L7812ABD2T-TRDT-TR`++## CAD (KiCad official)++- Symbol: `L7812ABD2T-TR`+- Footprint: `Package_TO_SOT_SMD:TO-263-2`+- 3D model: TO-263-2 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)++## Provenance++Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:++- **Datasheet:** [STMicroelectronics datasheet](https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/l7812abd2t-tr.pdf) (None pp, sha256 `f7b390b5c05e0aba`, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)+- **Extractor:** `ds2sf` (Claude).
