AP1509-50SG-13

Diodes Incorporated · DC-DC Converters · SOP-8

AP1509-50SG-13 from Diodes Incorporated, in a SOP-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 VIN power_in Operating voltage input. Supply pin, recommended 4.5V to 22V (absolute max +24V). Bypass with a bulk input capacitor close to the pin.
2 Output output Switching output from the internal 2A power switch. Connects to the external inductor and Schottky catch diode of the buck converter. Saturation voltage ~1.25V typ at IOUT = 2A.
3 FB input Output voltage feedback control. On the fixed 5V version this pin is internally tied to sense the 5V output; on adjustable versions the internal reference is VFB = 1.23V. Absolute max -0.3 to +18V.
4 SD input ON/OFF shutdown input. Logic low (VIL < 0.6V) enables the regulator; logic high (VIH >= 2.0V) forces standby mode. Absolute max -0.3 to +18V.
5 GND power_in Ground return. Pins 5-8 are all GND and should be tied together to the ground plane to improve thermal dissipation of the SOP-8L package.
6 GND power_in Ground return. Tie together with pins 5, 7, and 8 to the ground plane.
7 GND power_in Ground return. Tie together with pins 5, 6, and 8 to the ground plane.
8 GND power_in Ground return. Tie together with pins 5, 6, and 7 to the ground plane.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
ap1509-50sg-13.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
ap1509-50sg-13-etched.step 2.9 MB You want the part with AP1509-50SG-13 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 690 faces against 147 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.
