LM21215MHE

Texas Instruments · DC-DC Converters · HTSSOP-20-EP

LM21215MHE from Texas Instruments, in a HTSSOP-20-EP. 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 ILIM passive A resistor between this pin and AGND sets the rising current limit ICLR, and shorting it to AGND programs the maximum possible current limit.
2 SS/TRK passive An internal 2-µA current source charges an external capacitor between this pin and AGND to set the start-up output voltage ramp rate, and this pin can also configure the tracking feature.
3 EN input Active-high enable input, which can be left open because an internal current source pulls it high.
4 AVIN power_in Analog input supply that generates the internal bias, recommended to be connected to PVIN through a low-pass RC filter; recommended operating range is 2.95 V to 5.5 V.
5 PVIN power_in Input voltage to the internal power switches, to be connected together with pins 6 and 7 at the device, with low-ESR input capacitance placed as close as possible; recommended operating range is 2.95 V to 5.5 V.
6 PVIN power_in Input voltage to the internal power switches, to be connected together with pins 5 and 7 at the device, with low-ESR input capacitance placed as close as possible; recommended operating range is 2.95 V to 5.5 V.
7 PVIN power_in Input voltage to the internal power switches, to be connected together with pins 5 and 6 at the device, with low-ESR input capacitance placed as close as possible; recommended operating range is 2.95 V to 5.5 V.
8 PGND power_in Power ground for the internal power switches, to be connected together with pins 9 and 10.
9 PGND power_in Power ground for the internal power switches, to be connected together with pins 8 and 10.
10 PGND power_in Power ground for the internal power switches, to be connected together with pins 8 and 9.
11 SW power_out Switch node that should be tied locally with pins 12-16 and connected to the filter inductor.
12 SW power_out Switch node that should be tied locally with pins 11 and 13-16 and connected to the filter inductor.
13 SW power_out Switch node that should be tied locally with pins 11-12 and 14-16 and connected to the filter inductor.
14 SW power_out Switch node that should be tied locally with pins 11-13 and 15-16 and connected to the filter inductor.
15 SW power_out Switch node that should be tied locally with pins 11-14 and 16 and connected to the filter inductor.
16 SW power_out Switch node that should be tied locally with pins 11-15 and connected to the filter inductor.
17 PGOOD output Open-drain power-good indicator output.
18 COMP passive Compensation pin connected to the output of the voltage loop error amplifier.
19 FB input Feedback pin connected to the inverting input of the voltage loop error amplifier; the datasheet lists the feedback voltage as 0.6 V with ±1% tolerance.
20 AGND power_in Quiet analog ground for the internal reference and bias circuitry.
21 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: LM21215MHE
  • Footprint: Package_SO:TSSOP-20-1EP_4.4x6.5mm_P0.65mm_EP2.15x3.35mm
  • 3D model: HTSSOP-20-EP, generated from the KiCad footprint (body from the F.Fab outline, terminals on the pads, 1.2 mm nominal TSSOP height). Neither the vendor nor KiCad ships a 3D model for this package, so the dimensions are nominal, not the manufacturer's CAD (STEP)
  • 3D model files: lm21215mhe-etched.step / lm21215mhe-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); lm21215mhe.step / lm21215mhe.glb are the bare package body.
