Current Mode PWM Controller

FEATURES Optimized For Off-line And DC To DC Converters Low Start Up Current (<1mA) Automatic Feed Forward Compensation Pulse-by-pulse Current Limiting Enhanced Load Response Characteristics Under-voltage Lockout With Hysteresis Double Pulse Suppression High Current Totem Pole Output Internally Trimmed Bandgap Reference 500khz Operation Low RO Error Amp DESCRIPTION The UC1842/3/4/5 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 under-voltage lockout featuring start up current less than 1mA, 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. 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 16V (on) and 10V (off), ideally suited to off-line applications. The corresponding thresholds for the UC1843 and UC1845 are 8.4V and 7.6V. 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.

Output frequency is one half oscillator frequency for the UC1844 and UC1845. Temperature stability, sometimes referred to as average temperature coefficient, is described by the equation: V (max ) VREF (min ) Temp Stability = REF TJ (max ) TJ (min ) VREF (max) and VREF (min) are the maximum and minimum reference voltages measured over the appropriate temperature range. Note that the extremes in voltage do not necessarily occur at the extremes in temperature.

During under-voltage lock-out, the output driver is biased to sink minor amounts of current. Pin 6 should be shunted to ground with a bleeder resistor to prevent

activating the power switch with extraneous leakage currents.

UC1842/3/4/5 UC2842/3/4/5 OUTPUT SATURATION CHARACTERISTICS ERROR AMPLIFIER OPEN-LOOP FREQUENCY RESPONSE

OPEN-LOOP LABORATORY FIXTURE

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 5k potentiometer are used to sample the oscillator waveform and apply an adjustable ramp to pin 3.

SHUT DOWN TECHNIQUES

Shutdown of the UC1842 can be accomplished by two methods; either raise pin 3 above 1V or pull pin 1 below a voltage two diode drops above ground. Either method causes the output of the PWM comparator to be high (refer to block diagram). The PWM latch is reset dominant so that the output will remain low until the next 6

clock cycle after the shutdown condition at pin 1 and/or 3 is removed. In one example, an externally latched shutdown may be accomplished by adding an SCR which will be reset by cycling VCC below the lower UVLO threshold. At this point the reference turns off, allowing the SCR to reset.
