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.

Description
This pin is the Error Amplifier output and is made available for loop compensation.
This is the inverting input of the Error Amplifier. It is normally connected to the switching
power supply output through a resistor divider.
A voltage proportional to inductor current is connected to this input. The PWM uses this
information to terminate the output switch conduction.
The oscillator frequency and maximum Output duty cycle are programmed by connecting
resistor R
T
to Vref and cpacitor C
T
to ground. Operation to 500kHz is possible.
This pin is the combined control circuitry and power ground.
This output directly drives the gate of a power MOSFET. Peak currents up to 1A are sourced
and sunk by this pin.
This pin is the positive supply of the control IC.
This is the reference output. It provides charging current for capacitor C
T
through resistor R
T
.

GROUND
High peak currents associated with capacitive loads
necessitate careful grounding techniques. Timing
and bypass capacitors should be connected close
to pin 5 in a single point ground. The transistor and
5 KΩ potentiometer are used to sample the oscillator
waveform and apply an adjustable ramp to pin 3.
