UC3846DW Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The UC3846DW from Texas Instruments is a versatile current mode PWM controller. It is designed to implement fixed-frequency, current-mode control schemes with a minimal external component count. This controller family offers superior line regulation and enhanced load response characteristics.

 

Key features include automatic feedforward compensation, programmable pulse-by-pulse current limiting, and automatic symmetry correction for push-pull configurations. It also provides double-pulse suppression, a ±1% band gap reference, undervoltage lockout, and soft-start capability. The device supports parallel operation for modular power systems and includes a differential current sense amplifier with a wide common-mode range.

 

This controller is suitable for various topologies including Boost, Flyback, Forward Converter, Half-Bridge, and Push-Pull. It operates with a frequency of 500kHz and supports a voltage range from 6.95V to 40V. The UC3846DW is available in a 16-SOIC package and is designed for surface mount applications.

 

Applications include telecommunication power converters and industrial power converters. The device offers control features such as current limit, enable, frequency control, and soft start.
