TPS54331DDAR

Texas Instruments · DC-DC Converters · SOIC-8-EP

TPS54331DDAR from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8-EP. 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 BOOT output Bootstrap capacitor node for the internal high-side MOSFET gate driver. A 0.1-µF capacitor is required between BOOT and PH. If the BOOT-PH voltage falls below the minimum requirement, the high-side MOSFET is forced off until the capacitor is refreshed. Absolute max BOOT: 38 V; BOOT-PH: 8 V.
2 VIN power_in Input supply voltage pin, 3.5 V to 28 V recommended operating range (absolute max 30 V). Bypass close to the pin with a low-ESR ceramic capacitor.
3 EN input Enable input. Pull below 1.25 V to disable the converter; float to enable. May be driven from a resistor divider off VIN to program input UVLO. Absolute max 6 V.
4 SS input Slow-start pin. An external capacitor from SS to GND sets the output-voltage rise time, limiting inrush current during startup.
5 VSENSE input Inverting input of the internal transconductance (gm) error amplifier. Connected via the output-voltage feedback divider; the amplifier regulates VSENSE to the internal 0.8-V reference.
6 COMP output Error-amplifier output and PWM comparator input. Connect the frequency-compensation network (typically a series R-C plus optional high-frequency pole cap) between COMP and GND.
7 GND power_in Device ground. On the DDA package this pin must also be connected to the exposed PowerPAD for proper thermal and electrical operation.
8 PH output Switch node: source of the internal high-side power MOSFET. Connect to the inductor and to the cathode of the external freewheeling (catch) diode. Handles up to ~9-A source/sink transient current.
9 PowerPAD power_in Exposed thermal pad on the DDA package only. Must be connected to the GND pin (pin 7) and soldered to a PCB ground plane for proper electrical and thermal performance.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
tps54331ddar.step 125 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
tps54331ddar-etched.step 2.5 MB You want the part with TPS54331DDAR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 616 faces against 152 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
