LGS5145EP

Legend Si · DC-DC Converters · ESOP-8

LGS5145EP from Legend Si, in a ESOP-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 BST passive Bootstrap supply pin for the high-side gate driver. A high-quality 100nF ceramic capacitor must be connected between BST and SW to bias the internal high-side MOSFET gate driver. Observe capacitor voltage rating (≥16V recommended).
2 VIN power_in Regulator power input, 4.5V-60V. Bypass with a 2.2µF (or larger) ceramic capacitor placed as close as possible between VIN and GND to minimize ringing and EMI.
3 EN input Regulator enable input. Drive high (>1.4V) to enable the buck output; drive low (<1.0V) to shut down the regulator and enter low-power sleep. Has an internal ~100nA weak pull-down; do not leave floating in noisy environments - tie to VIN for auto-start.
4 NC unconnected No connect. Leave floating.
5 FB input Feedback input to the internal error amplifier. Connect to the tap of an external resistor divider from VOUT to GND; internal reference is 0.812V. VOUT = 0.812 × (RF + RG)/RG; keep RG ≤ 30kΩ. Absolute max FB voltage is -0.3V to 6V.
6 NC unconnected No connect. Leave floating.
7 GND power_in Ground return pin. Must be connected to the exposed pad and to the system ground plane through multiple vias for proper thermal and electrical performance.
8 SW output Internal power-switch node. Connect to the external power inductor, Schottky freewheeling diode (e.g. SS26), and the CBST bootstrap capacitor. Handles the switching waveform at 1.2MHz with peak currents up to 1.7A.
EP GND (Exposed Pad) power_in Exposed thermal pad on the bottom of the ESOP-8 package. Must be soldered to the PCB ground plane (connected to GND, pin 7) for thermal dissipation and electrical grounding.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
lgs5145ep.step 193 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
lgs5145ep-etched.step 1.5 MB You want the part with LGS5145EP already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 398 faces against 63 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:
