UCC38C42DR

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

UCC38C42DR 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 compensation with internal current limit allowing zero duty cycle command by forcing pin to GND.
2 FB input Inverting input to error amplifier with 2.5V ± 1% noninverting reference for voltage-feedback loop control.
3 CS input Primary-side current sense input (noninverting to PWM comparator) compared against error amplifier output to terminate OUT switch conduction.
4 RT/CT bidirectional Oscillator set point pin; connect timing resistor (RRT) to VREF and timing capacitor (CCT) to GND to program switching frequency.
5 GND power_in Ground return pin for output driver stage and logic level controller section.
6 OUT output Gate driver output with ±1A peak current drive and rail-to-rail swing; actively held low when VDD below turn-on threshold.
7 VDD power_in Analog controller bias supply input (maximum 20V) requiring 0.1µF bypass capacitor directly to GND with minimal trace length.
8 VREF power_out 5V reference output with ±1% accuracy used to provide charging current through timing resistor; requires minimum 0.1µF ceramic bypass capacitor to GND.
