TPS5420DR from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8. 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 | passive | Boost capacitor pin for the high-side FET gate driver. Connect a 0.01µF low-ESR ceramic capacitor from BOOT to PH to provide gate drive above VIN. |
| 2 | NC | unconnected | Not connected internally. |
| 3 | NC | unconnected | Not connected internally. |
| 4 | VSENSE | input | Feedback voltage input for the regulator error amplifier. Connect to the output voltage divider; regulates to VFB = 1.221V typical (adjustable output down to 1.22V). |
| 5 | ENA | input | Active-high enable / on-off control. Below 0.5V the device stops switching; above 1.3V the device starts switching. Internally pulled up via a 1.5MΩ resistor so the pin may be left floating; do not connect through a resistor to ground. |
| 6 | GND | power_in | Device ground return. |
| 7 | VIN | power_in | Input supply voltage, 5.5V to 36V (40V absolute max). Bypass with a high-quality low-ESR ceramic capacitor placed within 1mm of VIN and GND. |
| 8 | PH | power_out | Phase / switch node - source of the high-side power MOSFET. Connect to the external inductor and catch (Schottky) diode. Delivers up to 2A continuous (3A peak); on-resistance 110mΩ typical. |

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:
| File | Size | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
tps5420dr.step |
122 KB | You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards. |

2.0 MB | You want the part with TPS5420DR already on it. |
The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 506 faces against 147 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.
