UC3844/3845
HIGH PERFORMANCE
CURRENT MODE PWM
CONTROLLERS
DESCRIPTION
The HG
UC3844/3845
are high performance fixed frequency
current mode controllers that specifically designed for Off-Line and
DC to DC converter applications with minimal external parts count.
The differences between
UC3844
and
UC3845
are the maximum
duty cycle ranges and under-voltage lockout thresholds. The
UC3844
ideally suited to off-line applications with UVLO thresholds
of 16V
(ON)
and 10V
(OFF)
, and
UC3845
has UVLO thresholds of
8.5V
(ON)
and 7.6V
(OFF)
for lower voltage applications.
FEATURES
* Operation output switching frequency up to 500 kHz
* Output deadtime adjustable from 50% to 70%
* Automatic feed forward compensation
* Latching PWM for cycle-by-cycle current limiting
* High current totem pole output
* Internally trimmed reference with under voltage lockout
* UVLO with hysteresis
* Low startup and operating current

PIN NAME
FUNCTION
Compensation Error amplifier output, this pin is made available for loop compensation.
Voltage Feedback, the inverting input of the Error Amplifier. It is normally connected to the
V
FB
switching power supply output through a resistor divider.
A voltage proportional to inductor current is connected to this input. The PWM uses this
I
SENSE
information to terminate the output switch conduction.
The Oscillator frequency and maximum output duty cycle are programmed by connecting
R
T
/C
T
resistor R
T
to Vref and capacitor C
T
to ground. Operation to 1 MHz is possible.
GND
Power ground.
This output directly drives the gate of a power MOSFET. Peak currents up to 1A are
Output
sourced and sunk by this pin. The output switches at one-half the oscillator frequency.
V
CC
Positive supply.
V
REF
Reference output, provides charging current for capacitor C
T
though resistor R
