TPS7A0230PDBVR

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

TPS7A0230PDBVR from Texas Instruments, 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 IN power_in Regulator input supply, 1.5 V to 6.0 V. Place a 1-µF (or larger) ceramic input capacitor from IN to GND, as close to the pin as possible, to minimize input impedance and improve transient response.
2 GND power_in Device ground. Must be connected to the board ground plane; serves as the return path for the LDO and reference.
3 EN input Active-high enable input (V_EN(HI) ≥ 1.1 V, V_EN(LOW) ≤ 0.3 V). Drive high to enable the regulator, low or float to disable. Integrates a smart pulldown (~500 kΩ, disconnected after startup) so the pin may be floated. V_EN range 0 to 6.0 V.
4 NC unconnected No internal connection. Tie to ground or leave floating.
5 OUT power_out Regulated output, fixed 3.0 V, up to 200 mA. Requires a minimum 0.5-µF effective output capacitance for stability; a 1-µF (up to 22 µF derated) ceramic to GND is recommended for best transient response. Place close to the pin.

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
tps7a0230pdbvr.step 85 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
tps7a0230pdbvr-etched.step 2.6 MB You want the part with TPS7A0230PDBVR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 629 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.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:

  • Datasheet: Texas Instruments datasheet (47 pp, sha256 df784ba192d0a660, retrieved 2026-08-17, tier: lcsc)
  • Extractor: ds2sf (Claude). Every pin and dimension is cited to a datasheet page; it refuses to fabricate.
