I would like to solder st L6563 on a PCB . Can not identify pin No.1 as the IC package is symmetric and there is no mark to identify Pin No. 1. Can somebody guide me

Welcome, @PVESV.1, to the community!

The L6563 is in an SO-14 package, where pin 1 is always clearly marked with a small dot - provided that the devices are not counterfeit.

Please upload a clearly visible photo (top view) so that we can assess this.

If you want to be sure, you can also send me a personal message (not here in the public community, because otherwise it could be misused) with a legible photo of the label on the packaging, so I can check whether it is a fake.

Regards

/Peter
