L7815CV from UMW, in a TO-220. 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 | IN | power_in | Unregulated positive input voltage. For the 15V output variant the input range is typically 17.5V to 30V (absolute max Vi=35V). A 0.33µF bypass capacitor to GND is recommended close to the pin. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Common ground reference. Also serves as the thermal path via the tab (electrically connected to GND on TO-220). |
| 3 | OUT | power_out | Regulated +15V output (4.75-5.25V tolerance scaled to 15V, i.e. ~14.25-15.75V over line/load). Output current up to 1.2A. A 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GND is recommended for stability. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 165 faces against 48 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.
