LM2940IMP-12 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 | IN | power_in | Unregulated input voltage; acceptable input voltage range 6 V to 26 V per recommended operating conditions. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Ground connection. |
| 3 | OUT | power_out | Regulated 12 V output voltage; this pin requires an output capacitor of minimum 22 µF to maintain stability. |
| 4 | GND | power_in | Ground connection. |
