LDS3985M18R from STMicroelectronics, in a SOT-23-5L. 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 | VI | power_in | LDO input voltage. Operating range 2.5 V to 6 V (absolute max -0.3 V to 6 V; non-repetitive spike up to 6.5 V for 200 ms). Bypass with a low ESR ceramic capacitor (>= 1 uF). |
| 2 | GND | power_in | Common ground reference for the regulator and its external input/output/bypass capacitors. |
| 3 | VINH | input | Inhibit/enable input. ON mode when VINH >= 1.2 V (typ. logic-high threshold 1.4 V), OFF mode when VINH <= 0.4 V. Inhibit input current +/-1 nA max. Do not leave floating; it is not internally pulled up or down. |
| 4 | Bypass | passive | Reference-voltage bypass pin. Connect an external capacitor (typ. 33 nF) to GND to minimize output noise (30 uVrms over 10 Hz-100 kHz with Cbyp = 33 nF). |
| 5 | VO | power_out | LDO regulated output, fixed 1.8 V for the M18R option. Guaranteed load current up to 300 mA. Requires an output capacitor Co = 2.2 uF to 22 uF with ESR 5 mOhm to 5 Ohm for stability. |
