LM3404MAX

Texas Instruments · LED Drivers · SOIC-8

LM3404MAX from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-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 SW output Switch pin that connects to the output inductor and Schottky diode; the absolute maximum SW to GND rating is -1.5 V to 45 V for the LM3404.
2 BOOT output MOSFET drive bootstrap pin that requires a 10-nF ceramic capacitor connected from this pin to SW, with BOOT to SW rated at -0.3 V to 14 V.
3 DIM input Input for PWM dimming that enables and disables the power MOSFET when driven by a logic-level PWM signal, with DIM to GND rated at -0.3 V to 7 V.
4 GND power_in Ground pin that connects to system ground.
5 CS input Current sense feedback pin where a resistor from this pin to ground sets the LED array current, with CS to GND rated at -0.3 V to 7 V.
6 RON input On-time control pin where a resistor from this pin to VIN sets the regulator controlled on-time, with RON to GND rated at -0.3 V to 7 V.
7 VCC power_out Output of the internal 7-V linear regulator that must be bypassed to ground with a minimum 0.1-µF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor.
8 VIN power_in Input voltage pin with a nominal operating range of 6 V to 42 V for the LM3404 (6 V to 75 V for the LM3404HV).
