VIPER265KDTR

STMicroelectronics · AC-DC Controllers And Regulators · SOP-16

VIPER265KDTR from STMicroelectronics, in a SOP-16. 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 GND power_in Ground connected to the source of the internal power MOSFET and the controller ground reference.
2 N.C. unconnected Not internally connected; highly recommended to connect to GND (pin 1) or leave floating.
3 N.C. unconnected Not internally connected; highly recommended to connect to GND (pin 1) or leave floating.
4 N.A. unconnected Not available for user; mechanically connected to the controller die pad, and highly recommended to connect to GND (pin 1) to improve noise immunity.
5 VCC power_in Supply voltage of the control section; this pin provides the charging current of the external capacitor.
6 N.C. unconnected Not available for user; highly recommended to connect to GND (pin 1).
7 FB input Inverting input of the internal transconductance error amplifier; a single resistor to the converter output gives an output equal to the error amplifier reference voltage, and an external resistor divider is required for higher output voltages.
8 COMP output Output of the internal transconductance error amplifier; the compensation network goes between this pin and GND, with linear voltage range from VCOMPL to VCOMPH, and it can directly control the PWM with an optocoupler.
9 N.C. unconnected Not internally connected; can be connected to GND or left floating.
10 N.C. unconnected Not internally connected; can be connected to GND or left floating.
11 N.C. unconnected Not internally connected; can be connected to GND or left floating.
12 N.C. unconnected Not internally connected; can be connected to GND or left floating.
13 DRAIN passive High voltage drain pin from which the built-in high voltage switched start-up bias current is drawn; connected to the metal frame to help heat dissipation, so a PCB copper area is required.
14 DRAIN passive High voltage drain pin from which the built-in high voltage switched start-up bias current is drawn; connected to the metal frame to help heat dissipation, so a PCB copper area is required.
15 DRAIN passive High voltage drain pin from which the built-in high voltage switched start-up bias current is drawn; connected to the metal frame to help heat dissipation, so a PCB copper area is required.
16 DRAIN passive High voltage drain pin from which the built-in high voltage switched start-up bias current is drawn; connected to the metal frame to help heat dissipation, so a PCB copper area is required.
