AP2127K-2.8TRG1

Diodes Incorporated AP2127K 2 8TRG1 · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-23-5

AP2127K-2.8TRG1 from Diodes Incorporated AP2127K 2 8TRG1, in a SOT-23-5. 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 VIN power_in Regulator power input. Operating range 2.5V to 6V (abs max 6.5V). Bypass to GND with a 1µF ceramic capacitor placed close to the pin to ensure input stability and low noise.
2 GND power_in Device ground reference and return for input/output currents. Tie directly to the system ground plane; use a wide copper trace to minimise noise.
3 Shutdown input Active-low enable/shutdown control. Drive high (≥1.5V) to enable the regulator; drive low (≤0.5V) to disable the LDO. When shutdown is asserted, an internal ~60Ω MOSFET auto-discharges VOUT to GND. An internal 3MΩ pull-down keeps the part off if left floating. Abs max input range -0.3V to VIN+0.3V.
4 NC unconnected No Connection on fixed-output (2.8V) version. On the adjustable AP2127K-ADJ variant this same pin becomes the ADJ feedback input; on the fixed 2.8V part it should be left floating (or optionally tied to GND).
5 VOUT power_out Regulated 2.8V output, 300mA continuous (400mA typical current limit, 50mA short-circuit clamp). Requires a 1µF or larger low-ESR ceramic capacitor (X5R/X7R) to GND placed close to the pin for stability.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
ap2127k-2-8trg1.step 85 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
ap2127k-2-8trg1-etched.step 2.3 MB You want the part with AP2127K-2.8TRG1 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 573 faces against 102 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.
