QX9920

QX Micro Devices · LED Drivers · SOT-23-6L

QX9920 from QX Micro Devices, in a SOT-23-6L. 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 DRV output Gate drive output for the external N-channel power MOSFET. Provides the gate switching signal generated by the internal RS latch / off-time logic. Maximum pin current 100mA; leave floating when no external MOSFET is used.
2 VSS power_in Device ground / power return. Connects to the negative rail of the supply.
3 EN input Chip enable input, active high. Logic-high threshold 0.4*VOUT, logic-low ≤0.3V, input current 0.1µA at logic high. A PWM signal on EN dims the LED brightness.
4 VDD power_in Internal circuit supply pin. Operating range 2.5V to 6V (absolute range noted as 2V-6.5V in pin table). Typically fed from VIN through a series resistor with a 2.5V-5.5V zener clamp when VIN exceeds this range.
5 TOFF input External MOSFET off-time setting pin. Off-time set by an R (ROFF) and C (COFF) network to VDD/GND per TOFF = 0.51 * (100kΩ·ROFF / (ROFF+100kΩ)) * (COFF + 12pF). If left unconnected, internal off-time defaults to 612ns.
6 CS input Current-sense feedback input. Connect to the top of the source-sense resistor Rcs on the external MOSFET source. Internal reference is 250mV (240-260mV), so LED current I_LED = 250mV / Rcs.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
qx9920.step 97 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
qx9920-etched.step 1.6 MB You want the part with QX9920 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 382 faces against 117 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.
