RT7272BGSP from Richtek Tech, in a SOIC-8-EP. 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 | output | Switch Node. Internal high-side/low-side N-MOSFET common drain node. Connect to the external L-C output filter. Absolute maximum -0.3V to (VIN + 0.3V). |
| 2 | BOOT | power_in | Bootstrap Supply for the High-Side Gate Driver. Connect a 100nF or greater ceramic capacitor from BOOT to SW. VBOOT - VSW absolute maximum is -0.3V to 6V. |
| 3 | EN | input | Enable Control Input. Logic-high (VIH ≥ 2V) enables the converter; logic-low (VIL ≤ 0.4V) forces the device into shutdown mode (IQ ≈ 0.5µA). Do not float. |
| 4 | GND | power_in | Ground. Signal and power ground return. Connect together with the exposed pad (pin 9) to a large PCB copper area for maximum thermal dissipation. |
| 5 | FB | input | Feedback Input. Connect to the converter output through a resistive divider to program the output voltage. Internal reference VREF = 0.8V (typ). |
| 6 | COMP | output | Compensation Node. Error amplifier output used to compensate the control loop. Connect a series R-C network from COMP to GND; an additional shunt capacitor to GND may be required in some designs. |
| 7 | RLIM | input | Current Limit Setting. Connect a resistor from RLIM to GND to program the high-side MOSFET peak current limit (adjustable from 1.9A to 7A per RLIM equation in Note 5). |
| 8 | VIN | power_in | Power Input. Supplies the internal regulator and the high-side MOSFET drain. Operating range 4.5V to 36V (absolute max 40V). Bypass with a suitable large ceramic capacitor placed close to the pin. |
| 9 | GND (Exposed Pad) | power_in | Exposed thermal pad. Must be soldered to a large PCB copper area connected to GND for maximum thermal dissipation. Electrically connected to pin 4 (GND). |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 453 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.
