MS78L08

MSKSEMI · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-89

MS78L08 from MSKSEMI, in a SOT-89. 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 VO power_out Regulated 8 V output (7.7 V to 8.3 V at Tj=25°C), rated for a maximum output current of 100 mA and decoupled with a 0.1 µF capacitor CO to GND.
2 GND power_in Ground reference common to input and output, connected to the return of the 0.33 µF input and 0.1 µF output capacitors.
3 VI power_in Unregulated input voltage, specified for 10.5 V to 23 V line regulation, with a 0.33 µF input capacitor CI to GND and an absolute maximum of 30 V for the 3.3 V-9 V output versions.
