TPS74401RGWR from Texas Instruments, in a VQFN-20-EP(5x5). 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 | OUT | power_out | Regulated output. Tied together with pins 18-20. Adjustable 0.8-3.6 V, up to 3 A. Output capacitor not required for stability but recommended for optimal performance. |
| 2 | NC | unconnected | No connection. May be left floating or tied to GND to improve thermal contact to the top-side plane. |
| 3 | NC | unconnected | No connection. May be left floating or tied to GND for improved thermal contact. |
| 4 | NC | unconnected | No connection. May be left floating or tied to GND for improved thermal contact. |
| 5 | IN | power_in | Unregulated input supply. Pins 5-8 tied together. Range 1.1-5.5 V. A 1 µF (or 4.7 µF if IN=BIAS) input capacitor is recommended. |
| 6 | IN | power_in | Unregulated input supply. Tied with pins 5, 7, 8. |
| 7 | IN | power_in | Unregulated input supply. Tied with pins 5, 6, 8. |
| 8 | IN | power_in | Unregulated input supply. Tied with pins 5, 6, 7. |
| 9 | PG | output | Power-good open-drain, active-high output indicating VOUT status. High-Z when VOUT exceeds the PG trip threshold, low when below. Requires a 10 kΩ-1 MΩ pull-up to a supply up to 5.5 V (may exceed VIN). |
| 10 | BIAS | power_in | Bias input voltage for the error amplifier, reference, and internal control. Range VOUT+VDO(BIAS) to 5.5 V. A 1 µF (or 4.7 µF if tied to IN) bias capacitor is recommended. |
| 11 | EN | input | Active-high enable. Driving high enables the regulator; driving low puts the device into shutdown. Must not be left floating. 0-5.5 V range. |
| 12 | GND | power_in | Device ground. Internally connected to the exposed thermal pad. |
| 13 | NC | unconnected | No connection. May be left floating or tied to GND for improved thermal contact. |
| 14 | NC | unconnected | No connection. May be left floating or tied to GND for improved thermal contact. |
| 15 | SS | passive | Soft-start programming pin. A capacitor from SS to GND sets the linear output ramp time. If left floating the soft-start ramp is typically 100 µs. |
| 16 | FB | input | Feedback input to the internal error amplifier. Connect to the center tap of an external R1/R2 divider to set VOUT (VOUT = VREF × (1 + R1/R2)). Must not be left floating. |
| 17 | NC | unconnected | No connection. May be left floating or tied to GND for improved thermal contact. |
| 18 | OUT | power_out | Regulated output. Tied together with pins 1, 19, 20. |
| 19 | OUT | power_out | Regulated output. Tied together with pins 1, 18, 20. |
| 20 | OUT | power_out | Regulated output. Tied together with pins 1, 18, 19. |
| 21 | PAD | power_in | Exposed thermal pad on the package underside. Internally connected to GND. Must be soldered to the ground plane for proper thermal performance. |
