GS8521-TR from Gainsil, 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 | OUT | output | Amplifier output. Rail-to-rail output stage; swings within ~10mV of the rails with light loads (>500kOhm) and delivers ~58mA source/sink at V_S=5V. |
| 2 | VSS | power_in | Negative supply / ground. For single-supply operation tie to GND; for dual-supply operation connect to the negative rail (±1.05V to ±2.75V). Bypass with 0.1uF ceramic to V_DD. |
| 3 | IN+ | input | Non-inverting input. Rail-to-rail common-mode range extends 100mV beyond each supply rail (V_SS-0.1V to V_DD+0.1V). Input bias current ~1pA typ. |
| 4 | IN- | input | Inverting input. Rail-to-rail common-mode range extends 100mV beyond each supply rail (V_SS-0.1V to V_DD+0.1V). Input bias current ~1pA typ. |
| 5 | VDD | power_in | Positive supply. Single-supply range 2.1V to 5.5V (absolute max 7.5V V_DD to V_SS). Bypass with a 0.1uF ceramic capacitor placed close to the pin. |

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 450 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.
