CURRENT MODE PWM CONTROLLER
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
•
Optimized For Off-line and DC-to-DC
Converters
The UC1842/3/4/5 family of control devices provides
the necessary features to implement off-line or
dc-to-dc fixed frequency current mode control

Low Start-Up Current (<1 mA)
Automatic Feed Forward Compensation
Pulse-by-Pulse Current Limiting
Enhanced Load Response Characteristics
Under-Voltage Lockout With Hysteresis
Double Pulse Suppression
schemes with
a minimal external parts count.
Internally implemented circuits include under-voltage
lockout featuring start up current less than 1 mA, 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 off state.
High Current Totem Pole Output
Internally Trimmed Bandgap Reference
500-kHz Operation
Differences between members of this family are the
under-voltage lockout thresholds and maximum duty
cycle ranges. The UC1842 and UC1844 have UVLO
thresholds of 16 VON and 10 VOFF, ideally suited to
off-line applications. The corresponding thresholds
for the UC1843 and UC1845 are 8.4 V and 7.6 V.
The UC1842 and UC1843 can operate to duty cycles
approaching 100%. A range of zero to 50% is
obtained by the UC1844 and UC1845 by the addition
of an internal toggle flip flop which blanks the output
off every other clock cycle.
