DESCRIPTION
The UC3909 family of Switchmode Lead-Acid Battery Chargers accurately
controls lead acid battery charging with a highly efficient average current
mode control loop. This chip combines charge state logic with average cur-
rent PWM control circuitry. Charge state logic commands current or volt-
age control depending on the charge state. The chip includes undervolt-
age lockout circuitry to insure sufficient supply voltage is present before
output switching starts. Additional circuit blocks include a differential cur-
rent sense amplifier, a 1.5% voltage reference, a -3.9mV/擄C thermistor lin-
earization circuit, voltage and current error amplifiers, a PWM oscillator, a
PWM comparator, a PWM latch, charge state decode bits, and a 100mA
open collector output driver.
