UC3842A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The UC3842A is a fixed PWM controller designed for Off-Line and DC to DC converter applications. Manufactured by Linx Technologies Inc., this component is suitable for various power management needs.

 

Key electrical specifications include a maximum supply voltage of 30V and a maximum output current of 1A. The device operates at frequencies up to 500kHz, with a typical start current of 0.2mA and a short shutdown delay time of 100ns. It features under-voltage lockout (UVLO) thresholds of 16V (on) and 10V (off), and an output swing limiting of 22V.

 

The UC3842A is housed in a SOIC package, making it suitable for surface mount applications. Its operating temperature range is from 0°C to 70°C.

 

This controller integrates essential circuits such as UVLO, a low start-up current circuit, a temperature-compensated reference, a high-gain error amplifier, a current sensing comparator, and a high-current totem-pole output for driving a power MOSFET.
