MC7915CD2TR4G from onsemi, in a TO-263-2. 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 reference. Return current for the regulator; forms the reference node against which the -15 V output is developed. |
| 2 | VI | power_in | Negative input voltage. Must be at least ~2 V more negative than VO under the ripple minimum (dropout ~1.3 V typ). Absolute maximum -35 Vdc (part-family limit for -5 V ≤ VO ≥ -18 V variants). The exposed heatsink tab (terminal 4 of the D2PAK case outline) is electrically connected to this pin. |
| 3 | VO | power_out | Regulated negative output, -15 V nominal (MC7915C: -14.4 V to -15.6 V at TJ = 25 °C). Sources up to 1.0 A with adequate heatsinking. A 1.0 µF output capacitor is recommended for stability and transient response. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 521 faces against 79 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.
