LP3855EMPX-ADJ

Texas Instruments · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-223-5

LP3855EMPX-ADJ from Texas Instruments, in a SOT-223-5. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 SD input Shutdown input: a CMOS logic low turns the regulator off, the threshold has no hysteresis, operating range is -0.3V to 7.0V, and it must be tied to VIN if not used.
2 VIN power_in Input supply, operating from 2.5V to 7.0V, with a survival limit of -0.3V to +7.5V; input capacitor of at least 10µF is required.
3 VOUT power_out Regulated output, delivering up to 1.5A DC; output voltage survival limit is -0.3V to +6.0V and an output capacitor of at least 10µF is required for stability.
4 ADJ input Adjust pin, with a typical reference of 1.216V, that sets the output via external resistors using VOUT = VADJ x (1 + R1/R2).
5 GND power_in Ground pin, which should be connected to the external circuit ground at a single point with the input and output capacitor returns.

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: LP3855EMPX-ADJ
  • Footprint: Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-223-5
  • 3D model: SOT-223-5, generated from the KiCad footprint (body from the F.Fab outline, terminals on the pads, 1.45 mm nominal SOT 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: lp3855empx-adj-etched.step / lp3855empx-adj-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); lp3855empx-adj.step / lp3855empx-adj.glb are the bare package body.
