L78L15ACZ

STMicroelectronics · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · TO-92-3

L78L15ACZ from STMicroelectronics, in a TO-92-3. 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 VOUT power_out Regulated 15 V output; 14.4 V min / 15.6 V max at TJ = 25 °C (±4 % A-grade), up to 100 mA, dropout voltage 1.7 V typical.
2 GND power_in Ground reference for the regulator; common return for input and output.
3 VIN power_in DC input voltage; maximum 35 V for the 15 V output variant (VO = 12 to 15 V range per Table 1), recommended operating range 17.5 V to 30 V.
