SSP9461

Shanghai Siproin Microelectronics · DC-DC Converters · SOP-8-EP

SSP9461 from Shanghai Siproin Microelectronics, in a SOP-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 Input supply pin (4.5V to 60V, absolute max 62V). Powers all internal control circuits and the high-side MOSFET. Requires a decoupling capacitor to ground placed close to the pin to reduce switching spikes.
2 NC unconnected No connection. Leave floating or tie to ground per PCB layout preference.
3 EN input Enable input. Pull below the enable-off threshold (Venf ≈ 1.0V) to disable the converter; pull above the enable-on threshold (Venr ≈ 1.35V) to enable. Connect a 100kΩ resistor to VIN for automatic turn-on. EN input current is ~3.1μA at 2V and ~0.1μA at 0V.
4 FB input Feedback input to the internal error amplifier (reference 0.812V typ). Set the output voltage via a resistor divider from VOUT to FB. When FB drops below ~250mV (short-circuit), the reentry circuit reduces the switching frequency (~150kHz) for reliable current-limit protection.
5 NC unconnected No connection. Leave floating or tie to ground per PCB layout preference.
6 GND power_in Ground return for the IC. Should be connected as close as possible to the output capacitor return and avoid high-current switching paths. The ESOP-8 exposed thermal pad should be tied to this ground for improved heat dissipation.
7 BST power_out Bootstrap capacitor pin. Provides the floating positive supply for the internal high-side MOSFET gate driver. Connect a bypass capacitor (typ 100nF) between BST and SW. Absolute max BST-to-SW voltage is 6.0V.
8 SW output Switch node, drain of the internal high-side power MOSFET (1Ω RDS(on)). Connects to the external inductor and to a low-VF Schottky freewheeling diode to ground. Absolute max range −0.3V to VIN(MAX)+0.3V.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
ssp9461.step 193 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
ssp9461-etched.step 1.6 MB You want the part with SSP9461 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 382 faces against 63 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.
