L4979D013TR

STMicroelectronics · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SO-8

L4979D013TR from STMicroelectronics, in a SO-8. 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 EN input Enable input. When driven high, the regulator, watchdog, and reset blocks are operating. When driven low, they are shut down (quiescent current drops to ~6 µA typ). Absolute max input voltage -0.3 V to 40 V.
2 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
3 RES output Reset output (open-drain). Pulled low when the regulated output voltage drops below the internal Vo_th threshold or when the watchdog input (WI) frequency is too low. Requires external pull-up (typical Rext = 5 kΩ to Vo). Vres_l ≤ 0.4 V; leakage ≤ 1 µA at Vres = 5 V.
4 VCR passive Reset timing adjust. A capacitor connected between VCR and GND sets the reset delay time (t_rd). Absolute max -0.3 V to Vo+0.3 V.
5 VCW passive Watchdog timer adjust. A capacitor connected between VCW and GND sets the time response of the watchdog monitor. Absolute max -0.3 V to Vo+0.3 V.
6 WI input Watchdog input. Monitors an external clock signal from the microprocessor; if the input frequency is too low, the Reset (RES) output is activated. Absolute max -0.3 V to Vo+0.3 V.
7 VO power_out Voltage regulator output. Nominal 5.00 V (±2%, 4.90-5.10 V) at 1-150 mA. Requires an external output capacitor greater than 100 nF for regulator stability. Output current is internally limited (short-circuit typ 280 mA).
8 VS power_in Supply voltage input. Operating DC range 5.6 V to 31 V; absolute max 40 V. Requires a supply capacitor (e.g. 200 nF) close to the pin for regulator stability. Dropout voltage less than 0.5 V at 150 mA.
