MC78M08BDTRKG from onsemi, in a DPAK. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | VI | power_in | Unregulated positive input voltage. Absolute maximum 35 Vdc (40 Vdc for 20 V/24 V options). For 8 V output operation, VI ≥ ~10.5 V is recommended (dropout ≈ 2.0 V typ). |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Common/ground reference. Also serves as the thermal path: the DPAK heatsink surface (terminal 4 in the case outline drawing) is internally connected to Pin 2. |
| 3 | VO | power_out | Regulated +8.0 V output (7.70-8.30 V for MC78M08B/C, 7.84-8.16 V for MC78M08AB/AC over temperature). Rated for 500 mA continuous with adequate heatsinking; internal short-circuit current limit ≈ 350 mA typ. |
| 4 | TAB | passive | Exposed thermal pad / heatsink surface on the back of the DPAK-3 package. Internally connected to Pin 2 (GND). Solder to a copper pour for heat dissipation. |
