AP1509-12ME

HGSEMI · DC-DC Converters · ESOP-8

AP1509-12ME from HGSEMI, in a ESOP-8. 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 Supply voltage input pin that operates from 4.5V to 42V DC and should be bypassed to GND with a suitably large capacitor to eliminate input noise.
2 OUTPUT output Power switch output pin (SW) that is the switch node supplying power to the output; it is driven between VIN and GND, with an absolute maximum of -0.3 V to Vin.
3 FEEDBACK input Feedback pin (FB) that senses the output voltage through an external resistor divider and regulates it to a 1.23 V threshold.
4 ON/OFF input Enable pin where driving it low turns the device on and driving it high turns it off, with floating defaulting low; the pin voltage is rated -0.3 V to Vin.
5 GND power_in Ground pin that must be laid out carefully and placed outside the Schottky diode to output capacitor ground path to prevent switching current spikes from inducing noise.
6 GND power_in Ground pin that must be laid out carefully and placed outside the Schottky diode to output capacitor ground path to prevent switching current spikes from inducing noise.
7 GND power_in Ground pin that must be laid out carefully and placed outside the Schottky diode to output capacitor ground path to prevent switching current spikes from inducing noise.
8 GND power_in Ground pin that must be laid out carefully and placed outside the Schottky diode to output capacitor ground path to prevent switching current spikes from inducing noise.
9 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
