L7809CV from UMW, in a TO-220. 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 | I | power_in | Unregulated input voltage. Recommended Vi ≥ 11.5V for 9V output; absolute maximum 35V. Bypass with a 0.33µF ceramic capacitor to GND close to the pin for stability. |
| 2 | G | power_in | Common ground reference for input and output. In the TO-220 package this pin is electrically connected to the metal tab (heatsink). |
| 3 | O | power_out | Regulated +9V output. Sources up to 1.2A with internal current limit (typ. 0.4A short-circuit). Bypass with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GND to improve transient response. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 183 faces against 48 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.
