onsemi · DC-DC Controllers · SOIC-8

UC3843BD1G from onsemi, 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 Compensation output Error amplifier output made available for loop compensation; rated -0.3 to +7.2 V with 10 mA maximum error amp sink current.
2 Voltage Feedback input Inverting input of the error amplifier, normally connected to the switching power supply output through a resistor divider; rated -0.3 to +5.5 V.
3 Current Sense input Receives a voltage proportional to inductor current, which the PWM uses to terminate output switch conduction; rated -0.3 to +5.5 V.
4 RT/CT passive Oscillator frequency and maximum output duty cycle are set by resistor RT to Vref and capacitor CT to ground, with operation to 500 kHz possible.
5 GND power_in Combined control circuitry and power ground.
6 Output output Directly drives the gate of a power MOSFET, sourcing and sinking peak currents up to 1.0 A.
7 VCC power_in Positive supply of the control IC; maximum rating 30 V.
8 Vref power_out Reference output (5.0 V block) that provides charging current for capacitor CT through resistor RT.
