LM337T

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

LM337T from Texas Instruments, 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 ADJUSTMENT passive Adjustment pin for the output voltage; connect two external resistors to adjust the output voltage.
2 INPUT power_in Input voltage; the input voltage and current are designated VI and II, with the input-to-output differential limited to -40 V maximum.
3 OUTPUT power_out Output voltage; the output voltage and current are designated VO and IO, with output current up to 1.5 A.
