A6211GLJTR-T from Allegro MicroSystems LLC, 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 VIN power_in Supply voltage input terminal. Operating range 6 to 48 V (absolute max −0.3 to 50 V). Bypass locally to GND.
2 TON input Regulator on-time setting resistor terminal. External resistor RON to VIN sets the buck switch on-time (and effective switching frequency).
3 EN input Logic input for Enable and PWM dimming. VIL = 0.4 V, VIH = 1.8 V (abs max −0.3 to VIN+0.3 V). Drive with 100 Hz to 2 kHz PWM for LED brightness control; low = low-power shutdown (~1 µA).
4 CS input Drive output current sense feedback. Connects to RSENSE between the LED cathode and GND; internal 0.2 V reference sets the average LED current (ILED = 0.2 V / RSENSE). Absolute max −0.3 to 7 V.
5 VCC power_out Internal linear regulator output (~5.3 V typ). Decouple with CVCC to GND. Absolute max VCC-to-GND −0.3 to 7 V; intended for internal use, not for external loading.
6 GND power_in Device ground terminal. Tie to the exposed thermal PAD and to the power ground plane.
7 BOOT passive DMOS gate-driver bootstrap terminal. External CBOOT capacitor between BOOT and SW provides the high-side gate drive supply. Absolute max −0.3 to VIN+8 V; UVLO ~2.9 V (BOOT-to-SW).
8 SW output Switched output terminal (source of the integrated high-side N-channel DMOS). Connects to the buck inductor L1 and to the freewheeling diode D1 cathode. Absolute max −1.5 to VIN+0.3 V; RDS(on) ≈ 0.25 Ω, 3 A max output.
PAD PAD power_in Exposed pad on the underside of the package for enhanced thermal dissipation. Must be connected to GND (pin 6) and to a copper thermal pour. RθJP ≈ 2 °C/W.
