AP2900TB-A1

Wuxi Chipown Micro electronics · DC-DC Converters · SOT-23-5L

AP2900TB-A1 from Wuxi Chipown Micro electronics, in a SOT-23-5L. 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 VIN power_in Input supply voltage, 6 V to 40 V operating (42 V absolute max). Requires a low-ESR decoupling capacitor (1 uF X5R/X7R MLCC in parallel with a 100 uF electrolytic recommended) placed as close as possible between VIN and GND to supply AC current to the internal power MOSFETs.
2 GND power_in Ground pin. Common return for internal control circuitry and the low-side synchronous MOSFET source. Recommended to connect to the ground copper plane via vias for good thermal dissipation and noise suppression.
3 EN input Enable input. High level enables the IC, low level disables the IC (shutdown mode). Must not be tied directly to VIN, and must not be connected to VIN through a series resistor. Drive voltage must be kept below 5 V. Internally pulled up by an approximate 50 uA current source to ~4.5 V, so the IC auto-starts if EN is left floating. If an external pull-down resistor is used to disable, it must be < 4.7 kΩ to guarantee a valid low.
4 FB input Feedback input. Connect to the midpoint of the external output feedback divider to program the output voltage (VFB reference 1.2 V typ). Route away from the SW switching node to minimize noise pickup.
5 SW output Switch node. Drain of the internal high-side P-MOSFET and source of the low-side N-MOSFET; connect to the external inductor with a short, wide, thick trace to minimize EMI and switching loss.

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: AP2900TB-A1
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-23-5
  • 3D model: SOT-23-5L (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: ap2900tb-a1-etched.step / ap2900tb-a1-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); ap2900tb-a1.step / ap2900tb-a1.glb are the bare package body.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
ap2900tb-a1.step 85 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
ap2900tb-a1-etched.step 2.0 MB You want the part with AP2900TB-A1 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 491 faces against 102 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.
