LM2738XMY
Texas Instruments · DC-DC Converters · HVSSOP-8
LM2738XMY from Texas Instruments, in a HVSSOP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | BOOST | input | Boost voltage that drives the internal NMOS control switch, with a bootstrap capacitor connected between BOOST and SW; Boost-to-SW voltage is recommended at 2.5 V to 5.5 V. |
| 2 | VIN | power_in | Supply voltage for the output power stage, with a bypass capacitor to this pin; must be tied to pin 3 at the package and VIN/VCC is recommended at 3 V to 20 V. |
| 3 | VCC | power_in | Input supply voltage of the device, with a bypass capacitor to this pin; must be tied to pin 2 at the package and VIN/VCC is recommended at 3 V to 20 V. |
| 4 | EN | input | Enable control input where logic high enables operation; do not allow this pin to float or exceed VIN + 0.3 V. |
| 5 | GND | power_in | Signal and power ground; the bottom resistor of the feedback network should be placed as close as possible to this pin. |
| 6 | FB | input | Feedback pin that connects to the external resistor divider to set the output voltage (0.8 V internal reference). |
| 7 | GND | power_in | Signal and power ground; the bottom resistor of the feedback network should be placed as close as possible to this pin. |
| 8 | SW | output | Output switch that connects to the inductor, catch diode, and bootstrap capacitor; SW voltage is recommended at -0.5 V to 20 V. |
| 9 | EP | passive | Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table). |

Package_SO:HVSSOP-8-1EP_3x3mm_P0.65mm_EP1.57x1.89mm - 3D model: HVSSOP-8, generated from the KiCad footprint (body from the F.Fab outline, terminals on the pads, 1.0 mm nominal HVSSOP height). Neither the vendor nor KiCad ships a 3D model for this package, so the dimensions are nominal, not the manufacturer's CAD (STEP)
