UC2843M from HGSEMI, in a SOP-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 | COMP | output | Error Amplifier output, brought out for loop compensation. External RC networks between COMP and VFB set the control-loop response. |
| 2 | VFB | input | Inverting input of the Error Amplifier (internal reference ~2.5V). Normally connected to the switching supply output through a resistor divider for output-voltage regulation. |
| 3 | ISENSE | input | Current-sense input. A voltage proportional to the switch/inductor current (from a sense resistor) is applied here; the PWM comparator terminates the output switch conduction when this pin reaches ~1.0V (internal 1V clamp). |
| 4 | RT/CT | passive | Oscillator timing pin. Oscillator frequency and maximum duty cycle are set by an external resistor RT from VREF to this pin, and a capacitor CT from this pin to GND. Typical operation up to 500 kHz. |
| 5 | GND | power_in | Combined control-circuitry and power ground return for the IC. Single-point ground for both signal path and the totem-pole output stage. |
| 6 | OUT | output | High-current totem-pole gate-drive output. Directly drives the gate of an external power MOSFET; peak source/sink currents up to 1 A. VOH ~13.5V and VOL ~0.08V at 20 mA. |
| 7 | VCC | power_in | Positive supply for the IC. Absolute max 30V (or Zener-clamped ~38V). UC2843/45 UVLO turn-on ~8.4V, turn-off ~7.6V; operating ICC ~13 mA, startup ~0.17 mA. |
| 8 | VREF | power_out | 5.0V (±2%) trimmed reference output. Sources bias/charging current for the timing capacitor CT via RT; short-circuit current limited to ~-100 mA (typ). |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 453 faces against 147 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
