  • Symbol: A5947KLPTR-B-T
  • Footprint: Package_SO:TSSOP-20-1EP_4.4x6.5mm_P0.65mm_EP2.15x3.35mm
  • 3D model: TSSOP-20-EP, generated from the KiCad footprint (body from the F.Fab outline, terminals on the pads, 1.2 mm nominal TSSOP height). Neither the vendor nor KiCad ships a 3D model for this package, so the dimensions are nominal, not the manufacturer's CAD (STEP)
  • 3D model files: a5947klptr-b-t-etched.step / a5947klptr-b-t-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); a5947klptr-b-t.step / a5947klptr-b-t.glb are the bare package body.
