Foshan Blue Rocket Elec · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · TO-252
78D05 from Foshan Blue Rocket Elec, in a TO-252. 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 input voltage. Operating input range approximately 7 V to 25 V; absolute maximum 35 V. A 0.33 uF input bypass capacitor is recommended close to the pin. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Ground / common return for the regulator. Pin 2 is electrically tied to pin 4 (tab) as the device's GND connection. |
| 3 | OUT | power_out | Regulated +5.0 V output (4.75 V to 5.25 V over line/load). Sources up to 1.5 A with internal thermal and short-circuit protection. A 0.1 uF output capacitor is recommended for stability. |
| 4 | GND | power_in | TO-252 heat-sink tab, internally connected to GND (common with pin 2). Provides the primary thermal path to the PCB copper pour. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 318 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.
