L7985ATR

STMicroelectronics · DC-DC Converters · SOIC-8

L7985ATR from STMicroelectronics, 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 OUT power_out Regulator output; the output is set from 0.6 V up to VIN through an external divider on FB, and the absolute maximum OUT DC voltage is -0.3 V to VCC.
2 SYNCH input Master/slave synchronization pin: when left floating it carries a signal half a period out of phase with power turn-on, and an external signal at a higher frequency synchronizes the device with zero phase shift.
3 EN input Active-high enable: the device is ON when EN is higher than 1.2 V and OFF when EN is lower than 0.3 V.
4 COMP output Error amplifier output used for loop frequency compensation; the analog pin absolute maximum rating is -0.3 V to 4 V.
5 FB input Feedback input: connecting VOUT directly to FB regulates the output at 0.6 V, and higher voltages need an external resistor divider from VOUT; the feedback voltage absolute maximum is -0.3 V to 1.5 V.
6 FSW passive Switching frequency pin: an external resistor from FSW to ground increases the frequency, and if left floating the device runs at its free-running frequency of 250 kHz.
7 GND power_in Ground reference pin.
8 VCC power_in Unregulated DC input voltage, with an operating range of 4.5 V to 38 V and an absolute maximum of 45 V.
