LM2596S-ADJ from UMW, in a TO-263-5. 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 | Input supply voltage. Operating range 4.75V to 40V (LM2596) / 4.75V to 60V (LM2596HV). Absolute maximum 45V (63V for HV). Bypass with a low-ESR input capacitor (typ. 680 µF). |
| 2 | Output | output | Switching output pin. Emitter of the internal NPN power switch; connects to the external catch diode (e.g. 1N5824) and to the inductor of the buck output filter (typ. 33 µH). Steady-state voltage rated down to -1V; peak switch current limit typ. 4.5A. |
| 3 | GND | power_in | Device ground. Common return for the input capacitor, output capacitor, catch diode, and feedback divider. |
| 4 | Feedback | input | Output voltage feedback input to the internal error amplifier. For the ADJ version, connect to the mid-point of an external resistor divider from VOUT; internal reference VFB = 1.23V (typ). Bias current 10 nA typ (100 nA max). Absolute max -0.3V to +25V. |
| 5 | ON/OFF | input | Active-low shutdown / enable input (bar over ON/OFF). Regulator is ON when the pin is Low (<0.6V) or left floating; regulator is OFF (standby, IQ typ 80 µA) when the pin is High (>2V). TTL-compatible; absolute max -0.3V to +25V. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 560 faces against 135 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.
