TP181C50S5-A

TECH PUBLIC · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-23-5

TP181C50S5-A from TECH PUBLIC, in a SOT-23-5. 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 Unregulated input supply voltage. Operating range up to 18V (absolute max 18V). Bypass to GND with a 1µF ceramic capacitor close to the pin.
2 GND power_in Device ground reference. Connect to the system ground plane.
3 CE input Chip Enable (active-high). VCEH ≥ 1.3V enables the regulator; VCEL ≤ 0.7V disables it and puts the device into low-power shutdown. When CE=0 an internal ~500Ω auto-discharge resistor pulls VOUT to ground.
4 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to GND.
5 VOUT power_out Regulated 5.0V output (typ, 4.9V min / 5.1V max at IOUT=30mA). Supports up to 300mA continuous with foldback short-circuit protection (ISHORT≈40mA, ILIMIT≈500mA). Requires a 1µF ceramic output capacitor for stability.

  • 3D model: SOT-23-5 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: tp181c50s5-a-etched.step / tp181c50s5-a-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); tp181c50s5-a.step / tp181c50s5-a.glb are the bare package body.

Provenance
