AL8861Y-13

Diodes Incorporated · LED Drivers · SOT-89-5

AL8861Y-13 from Diodes Incorporated, in a SOT-89-5. 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 LX output Drain of the internal 40V NDMOS switching MOSFET. Connect to the inductor/freewheel-diode node of the buck power stage. RDS(on) ~0.2Ω, peak inductor current limit 2A.
2 GND power_in Device ground (0V) reference for the internal regulator and control circuitry.
3 VSET input Multi-function on/off and brightness control input. Floats internally to ~4.5V via a 1.4µA source; drive <0.2V to shut down, 0.3-2.5V DC for 0-100% analog dimming (5-100% recommended), or apply PWM (f<500Hz, 1-100% duty) via an open-drain transistor. A capacitor to GND sets soft-start (default 0.1ms, ~1.5ms per nF). Absolute max 6V.
4 ISENSE input High-side current-sense input. Connect sense resistor RS between VIN and this pin to program the nominal average LED current: IOUT(NOM) = 0.1V / RS (100mV mean sense threshold, ±13% hysteresis).
5 VIN power_in Input supply, 4.5V to 40V (absolute max 42V). Decouple to GND with a ≥10µF X7R ceramic capacitor placed close to the device.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
al8861y-13.step 86 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
al8861y-13-etched.step 1.6 MB You want the part with AL8861Y-13 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 402 faces against 26 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.
