MC78L15ABDR2G from onsemi, in a SOIC-8. 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 +15 V output. Typical output 15 V (14.4 V min / 15.6 V max at TJ = 25 C), up to 100 mA. Recommend 0.1 uF ceramic to GND for transient response. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Ground reference. SOIC-8 pins 2, 3, 6, and 7 are electrically common to the die-attach flag; tying all four together on the PCB copper improves thermal dissipation. |
| 3 | GND | power_in | Ground reference. Internally connected to die-attach flag along with pins 2, 6, 7. Tie all four ground pins to a copper ground pour for improved thermal performance. |
| 4 | NC | unconnected | No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to ground; not electrically connected to the die. |
| 5 | NC | unconnected | No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to ground; not electrically connected to the die. |
| 6 | GND | power_in | Ground reference. Internally common with pins 2, 3, 7 via the die-attach flag; connect all four to the ground pour for thermal dissipation. |
| 7 | GND | power_in | Ground reference. Internally common with pins 2, 3, 6 via the die-attach flag; connect all four to the ground pour for thermal dissipation. |
| 8 | VIN | power_in | Unregulated input supply. Must be at least ~1.7 V above VOUT (Vdrop ~ 1.7 V typ.); absolute maximum 30 V for the 15 V variant. Place a 0.33 uF input capacitor to GND if the regulator is located an appreciable distance from the power-supply filter. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 627 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.
