Physical TO-92 leads, golden capacitor symbols and shared ground.

LP2950 TO92 physical OUT1 GND2 IN3 with5Vinput,1uFbypass,10uFoutputcapacitor and330ohmload.
TO-92 pin numbering shown. SMD reverses IN and OUT numbers; tab is GND.

Connect it, step by step

Follow the component values and pin connections

Supply

Apply 5 V to IN3 and common return to GND2.

Stabilize

Fit input bypass and the output capacitor with appropriate ESR.

Load

A 330 Ω load draws nominally 10 mA at 3.3 V.
