PL8310E

POWLICON · DC-DC Converters · SOT-23-6

PL8310E from POWLICON, in a SOT-23-6. 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 FB input Feedback input that senses the output voltage through an external resistor divider from the output to GND; it is a sensitive node and must be kept away from SW and BST.
2 GND power_in Ground pin of the device.
3 VIN power_in Power input supplying the IC, to be supplied from a 4.5 V to 36 V source and bypassed to GND with a large capacitor plus at least another 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor placed close to the VIN and GND pins.
4 SW output Power switching pin that connects to the switching node of the inductor.
5 BST passive Bootstrap pin; a 0.1 µF or greater capacitor connected between SW and BST powers the high-side gate driver.
6 CS input Current sense input; a 10 mΩ to 100 mΩ resistor between CS and GND programs the current limit, and the CS connection also selects the work mode (sense resistor to GND enables the CC loop, direct connection to GND sets the output with the FB divider).
