# SS56SMC

**BORN** · Schottky Diodes · SMC

SS56SMC from BORN, in a SMC. 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 | K | passive | Cathode terminal, marked by the color band on the package; the SS56 has a 60 V maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage and 5.0 A average forward current at TL=110 C. |
| 2 | A | passive | Anode terminal at the end opposite the color band; the SS56 has a maximum forward voltage of 0.70 V at 5.0 A and an operating junction and storage temperature range of -65 to +150 C. |

## CAD (KiCad official)

- Symbol: `SS56SMC`
- Footprint: `Diode_SMD:D_SMC`
- 3D model: SMC (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
- 3D model files: `ss56smc-etched.step` / `ss56smc-etched.glb` carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable `Adom.LaserEtch` group (Fusion-ready); `ss56smc.step` / `ss56smc.glb` are the bare package body.
