MT3406

Aerosemi · DC-DC Converters · SOT-23-5

MT3406 from Aerosemi, in a SOT-23-5. 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 EN input Chip Enable input. Drive above 1.5V (VENH) to turn on the converter; drive below 0.4V (VENL, 0.3V typ) to shut it down (<1µA shutdown current). Do not leave floating.
2 GND power_in Analog ground pin. Common return for the IC and the input/output decoupling capacitors.
3 SW output Power switch output; switch node connecting to the external inductor. Tied to the drains of the internal P-channel and N-channel MOSFET switches. RDS(on) ~300mΩ typ, peak current limit 2A.
4 VIN power_in Power supply input, 2V to 6V (6.5V abs max). Must be closely decoupled to GND with a 4.7µF or greater ceramic capacitor.
5 FB input Output voltage feedback input. External resistor divider (R1/R2) from VOUT sets the output voltage per VOUT = 0.6V * (1 + R1/R2). Internal reference VFB = 0.600V (±2%).

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
mt3406.step 85 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
mt3406-etched.step 1.4 MB You want the part with MT3406 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 334 faces against 102 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:

  • Datasheet: Aerosemi datasheet (9 pp, sha256 b0ca202562d99c5f, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: lcsc)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
  • CAD: KiCad official libraries (CC-BY-SA 4.0).
