UC2842B

UMW · DC-DC Converters · SOP-8

UC2842B from UMW, in a SOP-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 COMP output This pin is the error amplifier output and is made for loop compensation.
2 VFB input This is the inverting input of the error amplifier, normally connected to the switching power supply output through a resistor divider; the analog input absolute maximum range is -0.3 V to 5.5 V.
3 ISENSE input A voltage proportional to inductor current is connected to this input, which the PWM uses to terminate output switch conduction; the analog input absolute maximum range is -0.3 V to 5.5 V.
4 RT/CT passive The oscillator frequency and maximum output duty cycle are programmed by connecting resistor RT to Vref and capacitor CT to ground.
5 GND power_in This pin is the combined control circuitry and power ground.
6 OUTPUT output This output directly drives the gate of a power MOSFET, sourcing and sinking peak currents up to 1 A.
7 VCC power_in This pin is the positive supply of the integrated circuit; the absolute maximum supply voltage is 30 V (low impedance source).
8 VREF power_out This is the reference output, which provides charging current for capacitor CT through resistor RT.
