GS8591-SR

Gainsil · Operational Amplifier · SOP-8

GS8591-SR from Gainsil, 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 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to any convenient potential; not electrically bonded to the die.
2 IN- input Inverting analog input of the op amp. Rail-to-rail input range extends 100mV beyond the supply rails (VSS-0.1V to VDD+0.1V). Typical input bias current 20pA.
3 IN+ input Non-inverting analog input of the op amp. Rail-to-rail input range extends 100mV beyond the supply rails (VSS-0.1V to VDD+0.1V).
4 VSS power_in Negative supply / ground pin. For single-supply operation tie to GND; for dual-supply operation connect to the negative rail (down to -2.75V). Bypass with 0.1µF ceramic close to the device.
5 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to any convenient potential.
6 OUT output Amplifier output. Rail-to-rail output swing: typically to within 5mV of the supply rail with a 10kΩ load and less than 5mV with light loads. Short-circuit current 43mA typical; continuous output current 30mA typical.
7 VDD power_in Positive supply pin. Operates from 1.8V to 5.5V single-supply (absolute max VDD-VSS = 7.5V). Bypass with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor located close to this pin.
8 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to any convenient potential.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
gs8591-sr.step 122 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
gs8591-sr-etched.step 2.3 MB You want the part with GS8591-SR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 552 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.

Provenance

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

  • Datasheet: Gainsil datasheet (14 pp, sha256 1b646d2c2feb461f, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: lcsc)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
