UC3842BP

UTC Unisonic Tech · DC-DC Converters · SOP-8

UC3842BP from UTC Unisonic Tech, 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 Compensation output Error amplifier output, made available for loop compensation.
2 VFB input Voltage feedback input is the inverting input of the error amplifier and is normally connected to the switching power supply output through a resistor divider.
3 ISENSE input Receives a voltage proportional to inductor current, which the PWM uses to terminate output switch conduction.
4 RT/CT passive Oscillator frequency and maximum output duty cycle are programmed by resistor RT to VREF and capacitor CT to ground, and operation to 1 MHz is possible.
5 GND power_in Power ground.
6 Output output Directly drives the gate of a power MOSFET, sourcing and sinking peak currents up to 1 A and switching at one-half the oscillator frequency.
7 VCC power_in Positive supply; absolute maximum is 30 V from a low-impedance source, and the supply is self-limiting when ICC is below 30 mA.
8 VREF power_out Reference output that provides charging current for capacitor CT through resistor RT; 4.9 V to 5.1 V at 1.0 mA and TJ = 25°C.
