LM3402MMX

Texas Instruments · LED Drivers · VSSOP-8-0.65mm

LM3402MMX from Texas Instruments, in a VSSOP-8-0.65mm. 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 Switch node. Drain of the internal high-side N-channel MOSFET; connect to the output inductor and the cathode of the recirculating Schottky diode. Swings between VIN and about -1 V during switching.
2 BOOT passive High-side MOSFET gate-drive bootstrap pin. Connect a 10-nF ceramic capacitor from BOOT to SW to develop the boosted gate-drive rail. BOOT-to-SW rating is 14 V max.
3 DIM input PWM dimming / enable input. Logic-level input (VIH >= 2.2 V, VIL <= 0.8 V) that gates the power MOSFET to modulate average LED current or place the part in low-power shutdown. Has an internal ~75 uA pull-up so the pin defaults high.
4 GND power_in Device ground. Connect directly to the system ground plane and to the return of CIN, CF, and RSNS.
5 CS input LED current-sense feedback input. Regulated to VREF-REG = 200 mV (typical) above GND; sets LED current via RSNS from CS to GND (ILED = 0.2 V / RSNS). CS above ~300 mV triggers the over-voltage / open-LED comparator that turns SW off.
6 RON input ON-time programming pin. A resistor from RON to VIN sets the controlled switch ON-time and thus the switching frequency of the hysteretic loop. Pulling RON below the shutdown threshold (~0.7 V) also forces the part into low-power shutdown.
7 VCC power_out Output of the internal 7-V linear regulator that supplies the gate-drive and control circuits. Bypass to GND with a >= 0.1 uF X5R/X7R ceramic capacitor. Not intended to source external loads (current limit ~16 mA).
8 VIN power_in Input supply pin. 6 V to 42 V operating range on the LM3402 (6 V to 75 V on the LM3402HV). Decouple locally to GND with CIN. Absolute-maximum 45 V (LM3402) / 76 V (HV).
