L78L24ACUTR from STMicroelectronics, 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 | VOUT | power_out | Regulated +24 V output (±4% for the 'AC' grade). Sources up to 100 mA. A 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND is recommended for stability and transient response. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Common ground reference. On SOT-89 the center lead is also the thermal/heat-sink tab, so the connected copper pour dominates the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RthJA ≈ 55 °C/W with 6 cm² copper). |
| 3 | VIN | power_in | Unregulated positive input supply. For the 24 V variant, absolute maximum VI = 40 V; dropout is typically 2 V so VI must be ≥ ~26 V for regulation. A 0.33 µF input capacitor to GND is recommended, especially if the regulator is remote from the bulk supply. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 379 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.
