LM78M12ADT

HGSEMI · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · TO-252-2

LM78M12ADT from HGSEMI, in a TO-252-2. 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 VIN power_in Input voltage pin; absolute maximum 35 V for 5 V to 18 V output versions, and the 12 V version is tested with VI = 14.5 V to 30 V for line regulation.
2 GND power_in Ground pin, drawn as a short center lead that is connected to the GND tab.
3 VOUT power_out Regulated 12 V output (11.5 V to 12.5 V at TJ = +25 °C) for the LM78M12A, rated up to 1 A.
