XL4301E1

XLSEMI · DC-DC Converters · SOIC-8-EP

XL4301E1 from XLSEMI, in a SOIC-8-EP. 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 NC unconnected Not connected. Leave floating or tie to ground per PCB convention.
2 SW output Power switch output. Drain of the internal high-side MOSFET; connects to the external inductor/catch diode of the buck converter. The back exposed pad is internally tied to SW and should be connected to this node on the PCB.
3 GND power_in Ground reference for the IC and the return for the input/output bypass capacitors.
4 FB input Feedback input to the internal error amplifier. Senses the regulated output through an external resistor divider; regulation threshold is 1.25 V typical (VOUT = 1.25 V x (1 + R2/R1)).
5 CS input Output current sense input for the constant-current loop. Load current is set by an external sense resistor: Iload = 0.11 V / RCS (VCS typ. 110 mV).
6 LC input Output cable-loss compensation input. A user-programmable resistor (R3) from this pin to ground selects the amount of voltage-drop compensation added to the output as a function of load current (see Table 2).
7 VC passive Internal voltage regulator bypass pin. Connect a 1 uF capacitor from VC to VIN to decouple the internal LDO that supplies the control circuitry.
8 VIN power_in Supply voltage input, 8 V to 40 V DC operating range (45 V absolute maximum). Bypass to GND with a suitably large low-ESR capacitor (e.g. 100 uF/50 V) close to the pin to eliminate input noise.
