UA78L05ACDR

Texas Instruments · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOIC-8

UA78L05ACDR from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-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 OUTPUT power_out Regulated +5 V output, up to 100 mA. A 0.1-uF capacitor to COMMON is recommended for stability and transient response.
2 COMMON power_in Common/ground reference for the regulator. Tie to system ground; internally connected to pins 3 and 6.
3 COMMON power_in Common/ground reference for the regulator. Tie to system ground; internally connected to pins 2 and 6. Also aids thermal dissipation via the PCB copper.
4 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to COMMON as desired for PCB routing.
5 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to COMMON as desired for PCB routing.
6 COMMON power_in Common/ground reference for the regulator. Tie to system ground; internally connected to pins 2 and 3.
7 COMMON power_in Common/ground reference for the regulator. Tie to system ground; internally connected to the other COMMON pins.
8 INPUT power_in Unregulated positive input. Recommended input voltage 7 V to 20 V for UA78L05AC (absolute max 30 V). A 0.33-uF bypass capacitor to COMMON is recommended when the regulator is located far from the power-supply filter.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
ua78l05acdr.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
ua78l05acdr-etched.step 2.2 MB You want the part with UA78L05ACDR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 554 faces against 147 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:
