AP2281-3WG-7

Diodes Incorporated · AC-DC Controllers and Regulators · SOT-26

AP2281-3WG-7 from Diodes Incorporated, in a SOT-26. 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 OUT power_out Voltage output pin - P-channel MOSFET drain. Bypass to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor. Sources the switched load current up to 2A.
2 GND power_in Ground reference pin. Tie to system ground; both GND pins (2 and 5) should be connected.
3 EN input Enable input, active high. VIH ≥ 1.4V (VIN 1.5-2.7V), ≥1.6V (VIN 2.7-5.25V), ≥1.7V (VIN ≥5.25V); VIL ≤ 0.4V. Input leakage <1µA. Pulling EN low turns off the pass FET and, on AP2281-3, engages the internal discharge FET.
4 IN power_in Voltage input pin - P-channel MOSFET source. Operating range 1.5V-6V (absolute max 6.5V). Bypass to GND with a 1µF capacitor located close to the device. Pins 4 and 6 are the same net.
5 GND power_in Ground reference pin (second GND). Tie to system ground together with pin 2.
6 IN power_in Voltage input pin (second IN). Same net as pin 4 - P-channel MOSFET source input.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
ap2281-3wg-7.step 97 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
ap2281-3wg-7-etched.step 2.1 MB You want the part with AP2281-3WG-7 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 520 faces against 117 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.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: Diodes Incorporated datasheet (11 pp, sha256 bcdacbc38085b758, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
