UC3845N Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The UC3845N from Unitrode is a high-performance, fixed-frequency current-mode Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) controller. It is optimized for off-line and DC-to-DC converter applications, requiring a minimal number of external components for implementation.

 

Key electrical specifications include an operating frequency of up to 500kHz, a 50% maximum duty cycle, and an undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with hysteresis set at 8.4V/7.6V. It also features a low start-up current of less than 1mA and a high-current totem-pole output stage designed for driving N-channel MOSFETs.

 

This controller integrates essential circuits such as automatic feedforward compensation, pulse-by-pulse current limiting, and double-pulse suppression. The error amplifier has low output resistance, contributing to enhanced load-response characteristics.

 

The UC3845N is available in an 8-pin PDIP package, suitable for through-hole mounting. It operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. The standard package quantity is 50 units per tube.
