UC3845BD1R2G ON IC Integrated Circuit CHIP High Performance Current Mode Controllers

High Performance  Current Mode Controllers

     The UC3844B, UC3845B series are high performance fixed  frequency current mode controllers. They are specifically designed for  Off−Line and dc−dc converter applications offering the designer a cost−effective solution with minimal external components. These integrated circuits feature an oscillator, a temperature compensated reference, high gain error amplifier, current sensing comparator, and a high current totem pole output ideally suited for driving a power MOSFET.

      Also included are protective features consisting of input and reference undervoltage lockouts each with hysteresis, cycle−by−cycle current limiting, a latch for single pulse metering, and a flip−flop which blanks the output off every other oscillator cycle, allowing output deadtimes to be programmed from 50% to 70%.

      These devices are available in an 8−pin dual−in−line and surface mount (SOIC−8) plastic package as well as the 14−pin plastic surface mount (SOIC−14). The SOIC−14 package has separate power and ground pins for the totem pole output stage.

      The UCX844B has UVLO thresholds of 16 V (on) and 10 V (off), ideally suited for off−line converters. The UCX845B is tailored for  lower voltage applications having UVLO thresholds of 8.5 V (on) and 7.6 V (off).
