UCC38C41DR

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

UCC38C41DR 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 Error amplifier output for loop compensation, internally current limited so that zero duty cycle can be commanded by forcing COMP to GND, with a 10 mA maximum sink current rating.
2 FB input Inverting input of the error amplifier, whose non-inverting input is internally trimmed to 2.5 V ±1%.
3 CS input Primary-side current sense input to the PWM comparator, connected to the MOSFET source sense resistor, with a typical current sense amplifier gain of 3 V/V and an RC filter that may be needed against leading-edge noise.
4 RT/CT bidirectional Oscillator set point, where timing resistor RRT is connected to VREF and timing capacitor CCT to GND to set the switching frequency, with the maximum operating frequency stated as 1 MHz.
5 GND power_in Ground return pin for the output driver stage and the logic-level controller section, to which all voltages are referenced.
6 OUT output Totem-pole drive output intended to drive a MOSFET directly, sourcing and sinking up to 1 A peak; on the UCC38C41 the output runs at one-half the oscillator frequency, limiting maximum duty cycle to less than 50%.
7 VDD power_in Power input for the device with an absolute maximum of 20 V, requiring a 0.1 µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND placed as close as possible to the pin.
8 VREF power_in 5 V reference output (±1% tolerance) that must be bypassed to GND with a ceramic capacitor of at least 0.1 µF placed close to the pin, with a 55 mA maximum short-circuit current.
