TPS61170DRVR from Texas Instruments, in a WSON-6(2x2). 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 | FB | input | Voltage feedback input. Connect to the center tap of an external resistor divider from VOUT to program the output voltage; reference is typically 1.229 V. Input bias current is up to 200 nA. |
| 2 | COMP | output | Output of the internal transconductance error amplifier. Connect an external RC network to this pin for loop compensation. Source/sink current is typically 100 uA; transconductance is 320 umho typ. |
| 3 | GND | power_in | Device ground. Return for internal circuitry and power switch source. Also tie the exposed thermal pad to this analog ground plane. |
| 4 | SW | power_out | Switching node; drain of the internal 40 V, 1.2 A N-channel MOSFET (RDS(on) ~0.3 ohm at VIN=3.6 V). Connect to the switched side of the boost inductor. Absolute max voltage is 40 V. |
| 5 | CTRL | input | Multi-function control input used to enable the device and to program the feedback voltage. Accepts a PWM signal (duty cycle scales VREF) or an EasyScale 1-wire digital protocol for on-the-fly output voltage reprogramming. Logic high >=1.2 V, logic low <=0.4 V; internal pull-down ~800 kOhm. |
| 6 | VIN | power_in | Input supply for the IC. Connect to a 3 V to 18 V rail with a local input capacitor (>=1 uF). Absolute max is 20 V; UVLO threshold ~2.2 V (VIN falling). |
| PAD | Thermal Pad | passive | Exposed thermal pad on the bottom of the QFN. Solder to the analog ground plane with thermal vias for optimal power dissipation. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 489 faces against 50 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.
