LM2937IMPX-8.0

Texas Instruments · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-223-4

LM2937IMPX-8.0 from Texas Instruments, in a SOT-223-4. 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 INPUT input Unregulated voltage input; VIN must be between VOUT + 1 V and 26 V continuous (60 V transient, t ≤ 100 ms).
2 GND power_in Ground pin, which is also the reference for the internally connected TAB.
3 OUTPUT output Regulated voltage output that requires an output capacitor to maintain stability, with capacitor ESR up to 3 Ω.
4 TAB power_in Thermal and ground connection internally tied to device pin 2 (GND); connect to GND or leave floating and do not connect to any other potential.

Materials and finish

As the datasheet states them (page.json metadata.appearance; the 3D model's colours follow it).

Part Material Colour / plating Datasheet says Page
contacts copper is practical to the package. The ground connections for CIN and COUT should be back to the LM2937 ground pin using as wide, and as short, of a copper trace as is practical. 18
