SPX3819M5-L-5-0

MaxLinear · Voltage Regulators - Linear, Low Drop Out (LDO) Regulators · SOT-23-5

SPX3819M5-L-5-0 from MaxLinear, 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 VIN power_in Supply input. Operating range 2.5V to 16V (absolute max 20V). Bypass to GND with a 1µF ceramic capacitor placed close to the pin.
2 GND power_in Device ground reference. Ground pin current is ~90µA at 100µA load, rising to ~6.5mA at 500mA load.
3 EN input Enable (input). CMOS-compatible control input. Logic high (VIH ≥ 2V) enables the regulator; logic low (VIL ≤ 0.4V) or open forces shutdown, dropping quiescent current to near zero. May be tied directly to VIN for always-on operation. Input current is typ 0.01µA (VIL) to 3µA (VIH).
4 BYP passive Reference bypass pin (fixed-output versions). Connect an optional 1nF-10nF (typ 10nF) ceramic capacitor from BYP to GND to reduce output noise to ~40µVRMS (10Hz-100kHz). May be left floating; no DC path required. On the ADJ variant of this die (SPX3819M5-L, adjustable), the same pin is repurposed as ADJ feedback - this 5.0V fixed part uses it as BYP only.
5 VOUT power_out Regulated 5.0V output, 500mA capable. Requires a minimum 1µF ceramic output capacitor for stability. Dropout is typ 340mV / max 550mV at 500mA load.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
spx3819m5-l-5-0.step 85 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
spx3819m5-l-5-0-etched.step 2.5 MB You want the part with SPX3819M5-L-5-0 already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 604 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.
