LF50CDT-TR

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

LF50CDT-TR from STMicroelectronics, in a DPAK. 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 VO power_out Regulated output voltage; 5.0 V nominal (±2%), up to 500 mA output current, requires 2.2 µF bypass capacitor (ESR 0.1-10 Ω) for stability.
2 GND power_in Ground reference; electrically connected to the exposed thermal TAB on the DPAK package.
3 VI power_in DC input supply voltage; operating range up to 16 V (abs. max −0.5 V to 40 V; regulator enters shutdown for VI > 18 V).
TAB GND power_in Exposed thermal pad (heat slug); electrically connected to GND (pin 2); RθJC = 8 °C/W, RθJA = 100 °C/W.
