Changjing · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-89-3L
CJ79L12 from Changjing, in a SOT-89-3L. 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 | GND | power_in | Ground / common return for the negative regulator. Also connected to the SOT-89 tab. |
| 2 | IN | power_in | Unregulated negative input voltage. Operating range roughly -14.5 V to -27 V; absolute maximum -35 V. Bypass with ~0.33 µF close to the pin. |
| 3 | OUT | power_out | Regulated -12 V output (±0.5 V at 25 °C). Delivers up to 100 mA (IOM 0.1 A). Bypass with ~0.1 µF close to the pin for transient response. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 266 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.
