SIT2596S-ADJ

SIT · DC-DC Converters · TO-263-5

SIT2596S-ADJ from SIT, in a TO-263-5. 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 VIN power_in DC voltage input with a maximum of 40V and a minimum of 4.5V.
2 Output power_out Switching tube emitter open output that connects to the inductor and free-wheeling diode to form the step-down circuit, with output up to 37V and minimum 1.2V.
3 Ground power_in Ground connection.
4 Feed Back input Stabilized sample voltage input, generally connected to the output voltage, compared against the internal 1.23V reference to regulate the output.
5 ON/OFF input Enable control: above 1.3V (maximum 25V) turns the output off to 0V, below 1.3V the output is at its rated value, and it may be left open or tied to GND if not used.
6 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
