Description
The UC3842/UC3843/UC3844/UC3845 are fixed
frequencycurrent-mode PWM controller. They are specially
designed for Off-Line and DC to DC converter applications
with minimum external components. These integrated
circuits feature a trimmed oscillator for precise duty cycle
control, a temperature compensated reference, high gain
error amplifier, current sensing comparator and a high
current totempole output for driving a Power MOSFET. The
UC3842 and UC3844 have UVLO thresholds of 16V (on)
and 10V (off). The UC3843 and UC3845 are 8.5V(on) and
7.9V (off). The UC3842 and UC3843 can operate within
100% duty cycle. The UC3844 and UC3845 can operate
with 50% duty cycle.

Figure 1. Open Loop Test Circuit
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 5kΩ potentiometer are used to sample the
oscillator waveform and apply an adjustable ramp to pin 3.

Figure 2. Under Voltage Lockout
During Under-Voltage Lock-Out, the output driver is biased to a high impedance state. Pin 6 should be shunted to ground with
a bleeder resistor to prevent activating the power switch with output leakage current.
