L7915ACV

STMicroelectronics · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · TO-220

L7915ACV from STMicroelectronics, in a TO-220. 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 OUTPUT power_out Regulated negative output voltage terminal, nominal -15 V, delivering up to 1.5 A with adequate heat sinking.
2 INPUT power_in Unregulated negative DC input voltage terminal, rated from -18.5 V to -30 V for normal operation (absolute max -35 V for VO = -5 to -18 V devices).
3 GROUND power_in Common ground/reference terminal for the regulator, tied to the TO-220 tab.
