UC3843AD8TR

Texas Instruments · AC-DC Controllers And Regulators · SOIC-8

UC3843AD8TR 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 COMP output Low-impedance 1MHz internal error amplifier output with maximum sink current of 6mA and open-loop gain of 80dB.
2 FB input Error amplifier input for controlling power converter voltage feedback loop.
3 ISENSE input Peak current limit or PWM comparator input with peak current signal internally clamped to 1V.
4 RT/CT input Oscillator timing input programmed with external timing resistor RT (5kΩ to 100kΩ) and timing capacitor CT (470pF to 4.7nF).
5 GND power_in Controller signal ground.
6 OUTPUT output 1A totem-pole gate driver output capable of sourcing and sinking up to 1A gate driver current.
7 VCC power_in Positive supply bias input for gate driver requiring bypass capacitor at least 10 times larger than main switch FET gate capacitance.
8 VREF power_in 5V reference voltage output with maximum load current of 10mA and short-circuit protection at approximately 100mA.
