RT2101AGQW from Richtek Tech, in a WQFN-16(3x3). 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 | Power input. Supply range 2.95V to 6V (absolute max −0.3V to 7V). Tie pins 1, 2, and 16 together and bypass to GND with a low-ESR ceramic capacitor. |
| 2 | VIN | power_in | Power input. Supply range 2.95V to 6V. Connect together with pins 1 and 16. |
| 3 | GND | power_in | Power ground. Tie pins 3, 4, and the exposed pad (17) together and to the PCB ground plane for maximum power dissipation. |
| 4 | GND | power_in | Power ground. Tie pins 3, 4, and the exposed pad (17) together and to the PCB ground plane for maximum power dissipation. |
| 5 | AGND | power_in | Analog ground. Reference ground for the analog control circuitry; connect to the PCB ground plane via a quiet return path. |
| 6 | FB | input | Feedback input to the error amplifier. Regulates to the internal 0.827V (typ) reference; output voltage is set by an external R1/R2 divider from VOUT to FB to GND. Adjustable range 0.827V to 3.6V. |
| 7 | COMP | output | Compensation node for converter stability. Connect an external RC network from COMP to AGND to shape the error-amplifier response. |
| 8 | RT/SYNC | bidirectional | Frequency setting and external synchronous clock input. Connect a resistor RRT to GND to set the switching frequency (700kHz to 2MHz; e.g. 180kΩ → ~1MHz, 60kΩ → ~2.2MHz), or drive with an external clock in the 700kHz-2MHz range to synchronize. |
| 9 | SS/TR | passive | Soft-start and tracking. An internal 2.2µA current source charges an external CSS capacitor to set the soft-start ramp; VFB tracks VSS during startup. CSS(nF) = tSS(ms) × 2.2µA / 0.827V. |
| 10 | SW | power_out | Switch node. Connect to external inductor of the L-C output filter. Voltage rating −1V to (VIN + 0.3V) DC, −5V to (VIN + 5V) for <100ns transients. Pins 10, 11, 12 are tied internally and must all connect to the inductor. |
| 11 | SW | power_out | Switch node. Connect to external inductor. Tie pins 10, 11, 12 together. |
| 12 | SW | power_out | Switch node. Connect to external inductor. Tie pins 10, 11, 12 together. |
| 13 | BOOT | power_in | Bootstrap supply for the high-side MOSFET gate driver. Connect a ~0.1µF capacitor between BOOT and SW. BOOT-to-SW absolute max −0.3V to 7V. |
| 14 | PGOOD | output | Power-good indicator, open-drain. High-Z (good) when VFB is between ~93% and ~107% of VREF; pulled low (fault) when VFB falls below ~88% or rises above ~113% of VREF. Requires an external pull-up resistor. |
| 15 | EN | input | Chip enable. Pull high (>1.25V typ rising) to enable, low (<1.18V typ falling) to disable. Internal pull-up current source (~4.9µA at VIH+50mV) enables the chip when the pin is left floating. External resistor divider from VIN can set a custom UVLO. |
| 16 | VIN | power_in | Power input. Tie together with pins 1 and 2 and bypass with a low-ESR ceramic capacitor. |
| 17 | GND | power_in | Exposed thermal pad. Must be soldered to a large PCB ground copper area and connected to GND for maximum power dissipation (θJC = 7.5°C/W, θJA = 30°C/W). |
