DESCRIPTION
The UC384XT family of control ICs provides the
necessary features to implement off-line or DC to
DC fixed frequency current mode control schemes
with a minimal external parts count. Internally imple-
mented circuits include a trimmed oscillator for pre-
cise DUTY CYCLE CONTROL under voltage lock-
out featuring start-up current less than 0.5mA, a pre-
cision reference trimmed for accuracy at the error
amp input, logic to insure latched operation, a PWM
comparator which also provides current limit control,
and a totem pole output stage designed to source
or sink high peak current. The output stage, suitable
for driving N-Channel MOSFETs, is low in the off-
state.
Differences between members of this family are the
under-voltage lockout thresholds and maximum duty
cycle ranges. The UC3842T and UC3844T have
UVLO thresholds of 16V (on) and 10V (off), ideally
suited to off-line applications The corresponding
thresholds for the UC3843T and UC3845T are 8.5 V
and 7.9 V. The UC3842T and UC3843T can operate
to duty cycles approaching 100%. A range of zero to
< 50 % is obtained by the UC3844T and UC3845T by
the addition of an internal toggle flip flop which blanks
the output off every other clock cycle.
