MC79M15CDTRKG from onsemi, in a DPAK-3. 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 | GND | power_in | Common ground reference. A common ground is required between the input and output voltages. |
| 2 | VI | power_in | Negative input voltage. Absolute maximum −35 Vdc. For −15 V output operation, VI must remain typically 1.1 V more negative than VO (i.e., roughly −16.1 V minimum) even during input ripple peaks. Recommend 0.33 μF bypass capacitor (Cin) when regulator is located an appreciable distance from the power supply filter. |
| 3 | VO | power_out | Regulated −15 V negative output (−14.4 V to −15.6 V at TJ=25°C; 4% tolerance grade). Sources up to 500 mA with adequate heatsinking. Recommend 1.0 μF output capacitor (CO) to improve stability and transient response. |
| 4 | TAB | power_in | Exposed metal tab on the DPAK-3 body, electrically connected to the ground pin (pin 1). Provides thermal path to the PCB copper for heat dissipation; solder to a copper pour connected to GND. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 515 faces against 83 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.
