L79L08ACD13TR from STMicroelectronics, in a SOIC-8-150mil. 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 | VOUT | power_out | Regulated -8 V output. Delivers up to 100 mA. Recommended output decoupling capacitor 0.1 µF to GND. |
| 2 | VIN | power_in | Negative unregulated input voltage. Absolute maximum -30 V for -5 to -9 V variants (applies to L79L08AC). Recommended input decoupling capacitor 0.33 µF to GND. Pins 2, 3, 6 and 7 are electrically bonded to the die attach flag for improved thermal dissipation and must all be tied together to the input rail. |
| 3 | VIN | power_in | Negative unregulated input voltage. Internally commoned to pins 2, 6, 7 and the die attach flag for heat-sinking. Tie to the same input net as pin 2. |
| 4 | NC | unconnected | No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to GND per PCB convention. |
| 5 | GND | power_in | Ground / common return. Reference for both input and output voltages. |
| 6 | VIN | power_in | Negative unregulated input voltage. Internally commoned to pins 2, 3, 7 and the die attach flag for heat-sinking. Tie to the same input net as pin 2. |
| 7 | VIN | power_in | Negative unregulated input voltage. Internally commoned to pins 2, 3, 6 and the die attach flag for heat-sinking. Tie to the same input net as pin 2. |
| 8 | NC | unconnected | No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to GND per PCB convention. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 608 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
