UC2844BD1

The UC384xB 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 implemented circuits include a trimmed oscillator for precise DUTY CYCLE CONTROL under voltage lockout featuring start-up current less than 0.5mA, a precision 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 offstate.
Differences between members of this family are the
under-voltage lockout thresholds and maximum duty
cycle ranges. The UC3842B and UC3844B have
UVLO thresholds of 16V (on) and 10V (off), ideally
suited off-line applications The corresponding thresholds for the UC3843B and UC3845B are 8.5 V and 7.9
V. The UC3842B and UC3843B can operate to duty
cycles approaching 100%. A range of the zero to <
50 % is obtained by the UC3844B and UC3845B by
the addition of an internal toggle flip flop which blanks
the output off every other clock cycle.
