LM1938SF6

HTC Korea TAEJIN Tech · DC-DC Converters · SOT-23-6L

LM1938SF6 from HTC Korea TAEJIN Tech, in a SOT-23-6L. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 SW output Switching Pin. Collector of the internal NPN power switch (36V rated, 650mA current limit). Connect to the boost inductor and Schottky diode. Minimize metal trace area at this node to reduce EMI.
2 GND power_in Ground Pin. Connect directly to the local ground plane. Return for both the power switch emitter and the internal control circuitry.
3 FB input Feedback Pin. Regulated to an internal reference of 95mV (typ; 86-104mV). Connect the LED string(s) and a current-set resistor at this pin so ILED = 95mV / Rset. FB bias current is ~45nA typ (100nA max).
4 /SHDN input Active-low shutdown enable pin. Drive to 1.5V or higher to enable the device; 0.4V or less disables it. Shutdown supply current drops to ~0.1uA. Pin bias current ~65uA when active.
5 OVP input Over-Voltage Protection sense pin. Threshold is 29V typ. Limits the output voltage when the LED load is disconnected or open, preventing the SW node from exceeding the 36V rating.
6 VIN power_in Input Supply Pin. Operating range 2.5V (min) to 10V (max). Bypass this pin with a capacitor (typ 4.7uF ceramic) as close to the device as possible.
