UCC38084DR

Texas Instruments · DC-DC Converters · SOIC-8

UCC38084DR 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 CTRL input Error voltage input to the PWM comparator, typically driven from a secondary-side error amplifier through an opto-coupler, with an internal divider ratio of 0.45 to keep a usable range at the minimum VDD of 4.1 V.
2 ISET input Slope compensation current select pin, where a resistor RSET from ISET to ground sets the ramp so that IRAMP,peak = 5 x ISET,peak.
3 CS input Current-sense input to the PWM comparator, cycle-by-cycle peak current comparator and overcurrent comparator, where exceeding the overcurrent threshold (0.70 V to 0.80 V) causes a soft-start cycle and an internal MOSFET discharges the CS filter capacitor.
4 RT input Oscillator programming pin, where an external resistor from RT to GND sets the oscillator frequency with a nominal RT voltage of 1.5 V (1.2 V to 1.6 V) and a recommended timing resistor range of 25 kΩ to 698 kΩ.
5 GND power_in Reference ground and power ground for all functions, and a low-impedance circuit board ground plane is highly recommended because of high currents and high-frequency operation.
6 OUTB output Alternating high-current push-pull output stage, capable of 500 mA peak source and 1 A peak sink for driving a power MOSFET gate, switching at half the oscillator frequency.
7 OUTA output Alternating high-current push-pull output stage, capable of 500 mA peak source and 1 A peak sink for driving a power MOSFET gate, switching at half the oscillator frequency.
8 VDD power_in Power input connection with an absolute maximum of 15 V (IDD < 10 mA), where a 1-µF ceramic decoupling capacitor placed close to the chip to GND is recommended.
