LM7915T

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

LM7915T from HGSEMI, 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 GND power_in Common ground reference pin of the LM79xx negative regulator; the datasheet gives no electrical limits for this pin.
2 Input power_in Negative unregulated input supply; the absolute maximum input voltage is -35V at TJ=25°C.
3 Output power_out Regulated negative output of -15V nominal for the LM7915, specified from -14.44V to -15.56V at 5.0mA to 1.0A load, with output current in excess of 1.0A.
