Design a Custom BoardAbout This Component
Fixed-frequency current-mode PWM controller IC for offline and DC-DC converter applications. Features 500kHz operating frequency, high current totem-pole output (1A peak) for direct MOSFET gate drive, trimmed oscillator, temperature-compensated reference, error amplifier, and integrated undervoltage lockout protection. Designed for minimal external component count in switching power supply designs.
Package: SOIC-8 (3.9×4.9mm) · 8 pins
Why does this need a breakout?
An 8-pin SOIC with 1.27mm pitch is too fine for breadboards and hand-soldering without a microscope. A breakout board routes these pins to standard 0.1" headers, enabling rapid prototyping and reliable connections for op-amps, transceivers, and small power MOSFETs without requiring reflow equipment.
