PAM2841SR

Diodes Incorporated · LED Drivers · MSOP-8

PAM2841SR from Diodes Incorporated, in a MSOP-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 PGND power_in Power ground, kept as a separate trace from signal ground and joined to it at a quiet ground point.
2 VIN power_in Input voltage supply pin, 2.7V to 5.5V supply range, with an input capacitor of at least 1µF placed close to it.
3 ENA input Active-high chip enable (high ≥1.2V on, low ≤0.4V shutdown) that also accepts a 100Hz to 200Hz PWM dimming signal.
4 Comp passive Compensation node, which can be pulled down by an N-MOSFET for PWM dimming at 100Hz to 500Hz.
5 GND power_in Chip (signal) ground, to be kept close to the IC and the input capacitor.
6 FB input Feedback pin regulating to a 200mV (194mV to 206mV) feedback voltage across the LED current-sense resistor.
7 OVP input Overvoltage protection sense input with a 1.2V open-load threshold.
8 SW passive Drain of the main switch, rated to 40V maximum with a 1.5A current limit.
