UC3845D8

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

UC3845D8 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 compensation pin for external compensation elements; internally current-limited, can be forced to GROUND to control zero duty cycle.
2 VFB input Inverting input to internal error amplifier for controlling power converter voltage feedback loop and stability.
3 ISENSE input Primary-side current sensing input connected to current sense resistor; PWM uses this signal to terminate OUTPUT switch conduction and can accept voltage ramp for voltage-mode control.
4 RT/CT bidirectional Timing pin for fixed-frequency oscillator; connect timing resistor RRT to VREF and timing capacitor CCT to GROUND to set switching frequency.
5 GROUND power_in Analog ground serving as both power ground and signal return; for packages without separate PWRGND, serves dual function as power and analog ground.
6 OUTPUT output Gate driver output for external MOSFET; provides and sinks peak current up to 1A; actively held low when VCC is below turn-on threshold.
7 VCC power_in Analog controller bias supply input; total current is static current plus average OUTPUT current; requires 0.1µF bypass capacitor directly to GROUND with minimum wiring length.
8 VREF power_in 5V precision reference voltage output; provides charging current to oscillator timing capacitor through timing resistor; requires 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GROUND for stability.
