MC7812BDTRKG

onsemi · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · TO-252-2(DPAK)

MC7812BDTRKG from onsemi, in a TO-252-2(DPAK). 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 input supply. Must remain approximately 2.0 V above the +12 V output (dropout ~2.0 V typ.) and not exceed 35 Vdc absolute max. A 0.33 uF ceramic input capacitor is required if the device is located an appreciable distance from the supply filter.
2 Ground power_in Device common / ground reference. A common ground is required between the input and output sides of the regulator. On the DPAK-3 (DT SUFFIX, CASE 369C) package the heatsink tab (drawn as terminal 4) is internally connected to pin 2 (Ground).
3 Output power_out Regulated +12 V positive output, capable of delivering >1.0 A with internal short-circuit and thermal protection. An output capacitor (Co) is not strictly required for stability but improves transient response; values <0.1 uF may cause instability.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
mc7812bdtrkg.step 119 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
mc7812bdtrkg-etched.step 2.0 MB You want the part with MC7812BDTRKG already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 514 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.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: onsemi datasheet (28 pp, sha256 a0831a3a6a3010ac, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
