78L06MG-AB3-R

UTC Unisonic Tech · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-89-3

78L06MG-AB3-R from UTC Unisonic Tech, in a SOT-89-3. 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 OUT power_out Regulated +6V output. Delivers up to 200mA with typical dropout of 1.7V. A 0.1uF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND is recommended close to the pin for stability and transient response.
2 GND power_in Ground reference for the regulator. On SOT-89 this pin also serves as the primary thermal path via the tab.
3 IN power_in Unregulated input voltage. For the 6V version, recommended operating range is 8.5V to 20V (absolute maximum 30V). A 0.33uF bypass capacitor to GND is recommended close to the pin.

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
78l06mg-ab3-r.step 57 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
78l06mg-ab3-r-etched.step 1.9 MB You want the part with 78L06MG-AB3-R already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 480 faces against 42 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.
