L78L09ABZ from STMicroelectronics, in a TO-92. 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 | VOUT | power_out | Regulated 9 V output (8.64 to 9.36 V at 25 °C for the A grade), delivering up to 100 mA, with a 0.1 µF output capacitor used in the test circuit. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Ground reference common to input and output; quiescent current is 6 mA max at 25 °C. |
| 3 | VIN | power_in | Unregulated input voltage, absolute maximum 30 V for 3.3 to 9 V output versions, with a 0.33 µF input capacitor used in the test circuit. |
