TCS40DLR

TOSHIBA LF · Hall Sensor · SOT-23

TCS40DLR from TOSHIBA LF, in a SOT-23. 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 VCC power_in Positive supply voltage input. Operating range 2.3 V to 5.5 V (absolute max 6.0 V). A 0.47 uF decoupling capacitor should be connected near the device.
2 VOUT output Open-drain digital output. Pulls low (VOL <= 0.5 V at IOL = 1.0 mA) when magnetic flux density >= BON; goes to high impedance when flux density <= BOFF. Requires external pull-up resistor. Max output voltage 5.5 V, max output current 5 mA.
3 GND power_in Ground reference (0 V).

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
tcs40dlr.step 59 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
tcs40dlr-etched.step 1.4 MB You want the part with TCS40DLR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 351 faces against 69 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: TOSHIBA LF datasheet (7 pp, sha256 78d9f3b78d54f7ce, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: manufacturer)
  • 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).
