KF33BD-TR from STMicroelectronics, in a SO-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 | VOUT | power_out | Regulated 3.3 V output. Sources up to 500 mA. Requires a 2.2 µF ceramic/tantalum capacitor to GND for loop stability. |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Device ground / return. Tie to system ground plane. Multiple GND pins on SO-8 aid thermal dissipation (RthJA = 55 °C/W). |
| 3 | GND | power_in | Device ground / return. Bond internally to the die paddle for thermal dissipation; connect to ground plane along with pins 2, 6, 7. |
| 4 | NC | unconnected | No internal connection. May be left floating or tied to GND for routing convenience. |
| 5 | INHIBIT | input | TTL-compatible shutdown logic input. Drives the regulator into a low-quiescent standby state (typ. 50 µA) when asserted; otherwise the regulator operates normally. Useful for powering down downstream circuitry to save battery power. |
| 6 | GND | power_in | Device ground / return. Connect to ground plane along with pins 2, 3, 7 for improved thermal performance. |
| 7 | GND | power_in | Device ground / return. Multiple GND pins share the die paddle for heat sinking on SO-8. |
| 8 | VIN | power_in | Unregulated DC input supply, -0.5 V to +20 V absolute maximum. Bypass locally with a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor to GND. Dropout voltage typically 0.4 V (VIN must exceed VOUT by ~0.4 V for regulation). |

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:
| File | Size | Use it when |
|---|---|---|
kf33bd-tr.step |
123 KB | You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards. |

1.9 MB | You want the part with KF33BD-TR already on it. |
The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 470 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.
