UC3846N

Texas Instruments · DC-DC Converters · DIP-16

UC3846N from Texas Instruments, in a DIP-16. 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 C/S SS input Soft-start and current-limit programming input; sink current maximum 50 mA
2 VREF power_in 5.1-V band-gap reference output, ±1% accuracy; load regulation 3-15 mV for IL=1-10 mA
3 C/S, input Current-sense inverting input; common-mode range 0 to VIN-3 V
4 C/S + input Current-sense non-inverting input; common-mode range 0 to VIN-3 V
5 E/A + input Error-amplifier non-inverting input; common-mode range 0 to VIN-2 V
6 E/A, input Error-amplifier inverting input; common-mode range 0 to VIN-2 V
7 COMP bidirectional Error-amplifier output and PWM comparator input; output voltage 0.7-1 V low, 4.3-4.6 V high
8 CT input Oscillator timing capacitor pin for frequency programming per fT = 2.2/(RT·CT) kHz
9 RT input Oscillator timing resistor pin for frequency programming; oscillator current maximum 5 mA
10 Sync bidirectional Synchronization output from master or input to slave controller; output levels 3.9-4.35 V high, 2.3-2.5 V low
11 A Out output PWM driver output A; 500-mA peak source and sink; complementary with B Out
12 GND power_in Signal ground reference; all signals referenced to this node
13 VC power_in Output-stage bias supply input; maximum voltage 40 V
14 B Out output PWM driver output B; 500-mA peak source and sink; complementary with A Out
15 VIN power_in Logic and output-stage supply input; operating range 8-40 V; maximum 40 V
16 Shutdown input External shutdown signal input; threshold 250-400 mV (nominal 350 mV); input range 0 to VIN
