L5970ADTR

STMicroelectronics · DC-DC Converters · SOIC-8

L5970ADTR from STMicroelectronics, 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 OUT power_out Regulated step-down converter output; delivers up to 1.5A DC current to load, output voltage adjustable from 1.235V to 35V depending on external feedback divider network.
2 SYNC bidirectional Master/Slave synchronization pin; outputs signal synchronous with internal power turn-off at 500kHz when open, accepts external signal above 500kHz for device synchronization, acts as master or slave when connected with other devices.
3 INH input Active-high inhibit control input; disables device when above 2.2V (OFF state), enables when below 0.8V (ON state), must be grounded if unused or will be disabled by internal pull-up when floating.
4 COMP output Error amplifier output connected to external compensation network; sets loop response and stability characteristics of the voltage feedback control loop.
5 FB input Feedback input for output voltage regulation; direct connection to output sets 1.235V output voltage, external resistor divider with typical 4.7kΩ resistor to ground required for output voltages up to 35V.
6 VREF power_out 3.3V reference voltage output supplying internal circuitry; provides stable 3.234-3.366V output across 4.4-36V input range with no filter capacitor required for stability.
7 GND power_in Ground; common return path for all internal circuits and external connections.
8 VCC power_in Unregulated DC input voltage supply; accepts 4.4V to 36V input range for operation of internal voltage regulator and 1.5A internal P-DMOS power switch.
