L78L33ABD-TR

STMicroelectronics · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOIC-8

L78L33ABD-TR from STMicroelectronics, 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 3.3 V positive output, up to 100 mA. A 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND is recommended close to the pin for stability.
2 GND power_in Ground reference. Internally commoned to the die attach flag together with pins 3, 6 and 7 to improve thermal dissipation; all four pins should be tied to the ground copper pour.
3 GND power_in Ground reference. Internally commoned to the die attach flag together with pins 2, 6 and 7 for enhanced thermal performance.
4 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to GND as convenient for PCB layout.
5 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to GND as convenient for PCB layout.
6 GND power_in Ground reference. Internally commoned to the die attach flag together with pins 2, 3 and 7 for enhanced thermal performance.
7 GND power_in Ground reference. Internally commoned to the die attach flag together with pins 2, 3 and 6 for enhanced thermal performance.
8 VIN power_in Unregulated positive input voltage. Absolute maximum 30 V for the 3.3 V version; a 0.33 µF bypass capacitor to GND is recommended close to the pin.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
l78l33abd-tr.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
l78l33abd-tr-etched.step 2.3 MB You want the part with L78L33ABD-TR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 562 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.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: STMicroelectronics datasheet (45 pp, sha256 43922ae159face7e, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
