UMW · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · TO-252
78M09 from UMW, 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 | INPUT | power_in | Unregulated positive DC input to the regulator. For Vo=9V, recommended Vi range is 11.5 V to 24 V; absolute maximum Vi = 35 V. A 0.33 uF input capacitor (Ci) is recommended close to the pin for stability. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Common ground reference for both input and output. On TO-252 the GND pin is electrically connected to the tab/heat-slug used for PCB heatsinking. |
| 3 | OUTPUT | power_out | Regulated +9 V output (typ 9.0 V, min 8.64 V / max 9.36 V at 25 C). Delivers up to 1 A with internal current-limit around 800 mA short-circuit and 1.3 A peak. A 0.1 uF output capacitor (Co) is recommended for transient response. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 324 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.
