L7912ACV from STMicroelectronics, in a TO-220. 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 | GND | power_in | Ground reference pin of the regulator (shown as GROUND in the TO-220 pin connections figure). |
| 2 | INPUT | power_in | Negative unregulated input voltage, absolute maximum -35 V for VO = -5 to -18 V and -40 V for VO = -20, -24 V. |
| 3 | OUTPUT | power_out | Regulated -12 V output (-11.75 to -12.25 V at 25 °C), output current up to 1.5 A with internal current limiting. |
