XL2001E1 from XLSEMI, in a SOIC-8. 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 | Feedback pin. The internal feedback threshold is fixed at 5V; the FB pin senses the regulated output. When FB drops below ~1.5V the short-circuit protection latches the converter off. |
| 2 | NC | unconnected | No connection. Leave floating or tie to a copper pour per layout preference. |
| 3 | VC | passive | Internal voltage regulator bypass. In a typical application connect a 1µF capacitor from VC to VIN to decouple the internal regulator/reference. |
| 4 | VIN | power_in | Supply voltage input, 8V to 45V DC (absolute max 50V). Bypass VIN to GND with a large capacitor (e.g. 47µF/50V) close to the pin to suppress input noise. |
| 5 | SW | output | Power switch node. Drain of the internal high-side PMOS; connect to the external inductor and the cathode of the freewheeling Schottky diode (e.g. SS36). Pins 5 and 6 are internally tied. |
| 6 | SW | output | Power switch node (paralleled with pin 5) for current handling. Connect together with pin 5 to the inductor/Schottky node. |
| 7 | GND | power_in | Ground return. Route outside of the Schottky-diode-to-output-capacitor ground loop to keep switching current spikes from injecting noise into the IC. Pins 7 and 8 are internally tied. |
| 8 | GND | power_in | Ground return (paralleled with pin 7). Star-connect at the input capacitor return; keep away from the high-di/dt Schottky/output-cap loop. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 405 faces against 147 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.
