LP6238B6F

LOWPOWER · DC-DC Converters · SOT-23-6

LP6238B6F from LOWPOWER, in a SOT-23-6. 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 SW power_out Switching node. Drain of the internal 2.6A N-channel power MOSFET; connect the boost inductor between VIN and this pin, and the Schottky rectifier from SW to VOUT. Rated up to 12V absolute max to GND.
2 GND power_in Device ground return. Must be tied to the system ground plane close to the input and output capacitors for low-noise operation.
3 FB input Regulation feedback input. Connect an external resistive divider from VOUT to FB; the internal loop regulates FB to the 0.6V (typ) reference. VOUT = (R1/R2 + 1) x 0.6V. Feedback input current 50nA typ.
4 EN input Regulator ON/OFF control input. Logic high (VEN > 1.4V) enables the converter; logic low (VEN < 0.4V) forces the LP6238 into low-current shutdown (<1uA typ).
5 VIN power_in Input power supply pin, 2.5V to 5.5V. Bypass to GND with a low-ESR ceramic capacitor (22uF typical) placed close to the pin.
6 NC unconnected No connect. Leave floating or tie to GND; not internally bonded to any active circuit.
