LM2937ET-5.0 from Texas Instruments, in a TO-220. 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 | INPUT | power_in | Unregulated voltage input; the datasheet gives VIN as VOUT + 1 V minimum to 26 V maximum in recommended operation, with a 60 V transient limit (t ≤ 100 ms). |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Ground, and also the thermal tab connection; the tab is internally connected to this pin and should be tied to GND or left floating, never to any other potential. |
| 3 | OUTPUT | power_out | Regulated voltage output that requires an output capacitor to maintain stability; the datasheet's Detailed Design Procedure section gives the capacitor details. |
