Pin Configuration

XL4015E1 Pinout

Package: TO-263-5 (TO263-5L)

Pin NumberPin NameTypeDescription
1GNDPGround
2FBIFeedback
3SWOSwitch
4VCIVoltage Compensation
5VINPInput Voltage
TabSWOSwitch (Metal Tab, connected to Pin 3)

Notes

  • The metal tab is electrically connected to Pin 3 (SW) and should be soldered to the same net for improved thermal performance.
  • Pin 4 (VC) is typically connected to ground through a capacitor for compensation purposes.
  • Pin 2 (FB) is the feedback input for output voltage regulation.
