LM334MX from Texas Instruments, in a SOIC-8. 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 | R | passive | Current-set (R) terminal. Connect the set resistor RSET between this pin and V- to program ISET (ISET ≈ 67.7 mV / RSET at 25 °C). R-pin to V- voltage is limited to 5 V max. |
| 2 | V+ | power_in | Positive supply / current source input. Tied internally to pins 3 and 4 in the SOIC-8 D package; multiple pins are provided for improved thermal/current handling. Absolute maximum V+ to V- is 40 V (forward), 20 V (reverse). |
| 3 | V+ | power_in | Positive supply / current source input, common with pins 2 and 4. Multiple V+ leads share current in the SOIC-8 package. |
| 4 | V+ | power_in | Positive supply / current source input, common with pins 2 and 3. |
| 5 | NC | unconnected | No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to a nearby rail for layout convenience. |
| 6 | V- | power_in | Negative supply / current source output (return). Tied internally with pin 7 in the SOIC-8 D package. |
| 7 | V- | power_in | Negative supply / current source output, common with pin 6. |
| 8 | NC | unconnected | No internal connection. |
