LM79L12 from HTC Korea TAEJIN Tech, in a TO-92-3. 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 | Ground (common) reference pin for the negative regulator, per the datasheet pin description table. |
| 2 | VIN | power_in | Negative input voltage pin; for the LM79L12 the recommended input range is -14.5 V to -27 V and the absolute maximum input voltage is -35 V. |
| 3 | VOUT | power_out | Regulated negative output voltage pin (nominal -12 V for LM79L12), with output current up to 100 mA. |
