MIC4680YM

Microchip Tech · DC-DC Converters · SOIC-8

MIC4680YM from Microchip Tech, in a SOIC-8. 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 SHDN input Shutdown input: logic low enables the regulator, logic high (>1.6V) shuts it down; ground if unused.
2 VIN power_in Supply voltage input for the unregulated +4V to +34V supply.
3 SW output Switch output (emitter of NPN output switch) that connects to the external storage inductor and Schottky diode.
4 FB input Feedback input: connect to the output on fixed versions, or to the 1.23V tap of the voltage divider on the adjustable version.
5 GND power_in Ground; pins 5-8 are one piece of metal with the die paddle and should connect to a ground plane for heat sinking.
6 GND power_in Ground; pins 5-8 are one piece of metal with the die paddle and should connect to a ground plane for heat sinking.
7 GND power_in Ground; pins 5-8 are one piece of metal with the die paddle and should connect to a ground plane for heat sinking.
8 GND power_in Ground; pins 5-8 are one piece of metal with the die paddle and should connect to a ground plane for heat sinking.
