TPS73733DCQR from Texas Instruments, in a SOT-223-6. 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 | IN | power_in | Regulator input supply. Accepts 2.2V to 5.5V (absolute max 6.0V). Bypass to GND with a low-ESR ceramic capacitor close to the pin. |
| 2 | OUT | power_out | Regulated 3.3V output, up to 1A. Requires a 1.0µF or larger ceramic output capacitor for stability. Dropout is ~130mV typ at 1A. |
| 3 | GND | power_in | Device ground reference. Tab (pin 6) is also GND and should be tied to this net through the PCB copper for thermal dissipation. |
| 4 | NR/FB | input | On fixed-output versions (TPS73733) this pin is the noise-reduction (NR) node - an optional bypass capacitor to GND lowers output noise. On the adjustable TPS73701 the same pin becomes the feedback (FB) input from an external R1/R2 divider (V_FB internal reference ≈ 1.198-1.210V). |
| 5 | EN | input | Enable input, active high. V_EN(HI) ≥ 1.7V enables the regulator; V_EN(LO) ≤ 0.5V forces shutdown (I_SHDN ≈ 20nA typ). Do not float. Absolute max −0.3V to +6.0V. |
| 6 | GND (TAB) | power_in | SOT-223 metal tab, internally tied to GND. Solder to a copper ground pour for thermal dissipation; must be electrically bonded to GND. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 534 faces against 36 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.
