UC3879N Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The UC3879N from Texas Instruments is an enhanced bipolar phase-shifted full-bridge controller. It is designed to control a bridge power stage by phase-shifting the switching of one half-bridge with respect to the other, enabling constant frequency pulse width modulation combined with resonant zero-voltage switching for high efficiency.

 

This controller is compatible with voltage mode or current mode topologies and offers practical operation at switching frequencies up to 300 kHz. Key features include a 10-MHz error amplifier, pin-programmable undervoltage lockout, and a low startup current of 150 μA. It also provides soft-start control and outputs that are active low during UVLO.

 

The UC3879N is suitable for applications requiring efficient power conversion. It is available in a 20-PDIP package and is designed for through-hole mounting. The operating temperature range is 0°C to 70°C.

 

Note: This product is not recommended for new designs. Consider alternate products like the UCC28951 for new projects.
