NS4165B

Shenzhen Nsiway Tech · Audio Power OpAmps · ESOP-8

NS4165B from Shenzhen Nsiway Tech, in a ESOP-8. 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 SD input Shutdown control input. High level puts the amplifier into power-down; low level enables normal operation. Internal pull-down means the part is ON when the pin is left floating. Logic thresholds: VIH ≥ 0.7·VDD, VIL ≤ 0.7 V.
2 Bypass passive Internal reference voltage (VDD/2) bypass node. Connect an external decoupling capacitor (typically 1 µF) to GND to stabilize the mid-rail bias and minimize pop/click noise at start-up.
3 AB/D input Class-AB / Class-D mode select input. High level selects Class-D operation; low level selects Class-AB. Internal pull-up defaults to Class-D when the pin is left floating. Logic thresholds: VIH ≥ 0.7·VDD, VIL ≤ 0.7 V.
4 INN input Inverting analog audio signal input. AC-coupled through a series input capacitor Ci and gain-setting resistor Ri. Closed-loop gain Av = 300 kΩ / Ri (internal feedback resistor 300 kΩ, ±10%).
5 VON output Negative BTL speaker output. Drives one terminal of the loudspeaker directly (filterless in Class-D). Delivers up to 5.4 W into 2Ω (Class-D, 10% THD, VDD=5V) together with VOP.
6 VDD power_in Supply voltage input. Recommended operating range 3.0 V to 5.5 V (absolute maximum 6.5 V). Bypass locally with 100 µF in parallel with a 1 µF ceramic capacitor as close to the pin as possible.
7 GND power_in Device ground / power return. Also serves as the thermal path together with the ESOP-8 exposed pad; connect to a solid ground plane using a star topology for the power/ground routing.
8 VOP output Positive BTL speaker output. Drives the opposite terminal of the loudspeaker from VON. Together the differential pair supplies up to 5.4 W into 2Ω at VDD=5V with 90% peak efficiency in Class-D mode.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
ns4165b.step 193 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
ns4165b-etched.step 1.4 MB You want the part with NS4165B already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 358 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.
