LM2596MDT-12 from HGSEMI, in a TO-252-4. 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 | VIN | power_in | Unregulated DC power supply input. Operating range 4.5 V to 40 V (LM2596) or 4.5 V to 60 V (LM2596HV). Bypass to GND with a large-value input capacitor placed close to the pin to suppress supply noise and provide the switching current pulses. |
| 2 | OUTPUT | output | Switching node - internal power transistor emitter/drain. Connects to the external step-down inductor and the cathode of the catch (Schottky) diode. Saturation voltage typically 1.3 V (max 1.5 V) at ILOAD = 3 A. Absolute-max voltage range -0.3 V to VIN. |
| 3 | GND | power_in | Device ground return and heat-sinking tab reference. Must be routed on the output-side ground path (returning through the catch diode) rather than the switching-current side to keep the analog reference quiet from switching-current transients. |
| 4 | FEEDBACK | input | Voltage feedback sense input. For the fixed 12 V version this pin is tied directly to the regulated output - the internal divider sets the 12 V regulation (11.52 V / 12 V / 12.48 V min/typ/max). Internal reference threshold is 1.23 V. Absolute-max voltage range -0.3 V to VIN. |
| 5 | ON_OFF | input | Active-low enable / shutdown control input with hysteresis. Pull LOW (< 0.8 V) or leave floating to enable the regulator; drive HIGH (> 1.4 V) to shut the part down. Leakage 5 uA typ (max 30 uA) at 2.5 V (OFF); 0.2 uA typ (max 10 uA) at 0.5 V (ON). Absolute-max voltage range -0.3 V to VIN. |
