UC3843BN Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The UC3843BN from STMicroelectronics is a fixed-frequency, current mode controller designed for efficient Off-Line and DC-DC converter applications. It offers a cost-effective solution with minimal external components, featuring a trimmed oscillator for precise duty cycle control and a temperature-compensated reference.

 

Key electrical specifications include an operating voltage range of 7.6V to 30V and a maximum operating frequency of 500kHz. The controller supports boost and flyback topologies and provides a transistor driver output. Protective features include undervoltage lockout with hysteresis and cycle-by-cycle current limiting.

 

This component is housed in an 8-pin Mini DIP package suitable for through-hole mounting. The UC3843B variant is tailored for lower voltage applications with UVLO thresholds of 8.5V (on) and 7.6V (off).

 

Designed for applications requiring precise control and protection, the UC3843BN is a versatile choice for power supply designs.
