TL3843BDR-8 from Texas Instruments, 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 | COMP | bidirectional | Error-amplifier compensation/output pin; the amplifier can source or sink up to 0.5 mA here, and pulling this pin below two diode drops above ground forces a PWM shutdown. |
| 2 | VFB | input | Error-amplifier inverting input (feedback), with a trimmed 2.5 V reference at the non-inverting input and an input bias current typically ≤ -0.3 µA. |
| 3 | ISENSE | input | Current-sense comparator input; the PWM latch trips at a nominal 1 V threshold on this pin (COMP = 5 V), giving peak sense current IS(max) = 1 V/RS. |
| 4 | RT/CT | bidirectional | Oscillator timing pin connected to external resistor RT and capacitor CT that set the oscillator frequency (f = 1/RTCT, up to 500 kHz) and discharge current (~8.3 mA typ). |
| 5 | GND | power_in | Device power-supply ground reference terminal. |
| 6 | OUTPUT | output | Totem-pole PWM output intended to drive an external N-channel MOSFET, rated for an average output current up to 200 mA and swinging low when the output stage is off (UVLO saturation ≤1.2 V at VCC=5V, IOL=1mA). |
| 7 | VCC | power_in | Device positive supply voltage input, with recommended operating range up to 30 V and a start-up current of 0.3-0.5 mA before UVLO turn-on. |
| 8 | VREF | power_out | Trimmed 5 V oscillator/reference voltage output capable of sourcing up to 20 mA, with internal undervoltage lockout on the reference itself. |
