Pinout of the SG3525 PWM Controller IC
| Pin Number | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Inverting pin: If voltage > non-inverting pin, duty cycle increases. |
| 2 | Non-inverting pin: If voltage > inverting pin, duty cycle decreases. |
| 3 | Synchronization pin: Used for synchronization of two waves. |
| 4 | Oscillator output: Provides the output of an oscillator. |
| 5 | Frequency set pin: Used with pin 6 and 7 to set the PWM frequency. |
| 6 | Frequency set pin: Used with pin 5 and 7 to set the PWM frequency. |
| 7 | Frequency set pin: Used with pin 5 and 6 to set the PWM frequency. |
| 8 | Soft start pin (SS): Enables output after a delay. Higher capacitance increases delay. |
| 9 | Compensation pin: Used with feedback to stabilize output voltage against rapid changes. |
| 10 | Shutdown pin: 0 = active, 1 (5V) = shutdown mode. |
| 11 | Output pin: Provides input to MOSFETs, built-in MOSFET driver. |
| 12 | Ground |
| 13 | Vc (Power pin): Should be between 5-35V. |
| 14 | Output pin: Provides input to MOSFETs, built-in MOSFET driver. |
| 15 | Vin (Power pin): Should be between 8-35V. |
| 16 | Reference pin: Used to set reference voltage or provide 5V to the shutdown pin. |
