UC3846

The UC3846 control IC provides all of the necessary features to implement fixed frequency, current mode control
schemes while maintaining a minimum external parts count.

The superior performance of this technique can be measured in improved line regulation, enhanced load response characteristics, and a simpler, easier-to-design control loop.

Topological advantages include inherent pulse-by-pulse current limiting capability, automatic symmetry correction for
push-pull converters, and the ability to parallel "power module,, while maintaining equal current sharing. Protection
circuitry includes built-in-under-voltage lockout and programmable current limit in addition to soft-start capability. A
shutdown function is also available which can initiate either a complete shutdown with automatic restart or latch the
supply off. Other features include fully latched operation, double pulse suppression, deadtime adjust capability, and
±2% trimmed bandgap reference. The UC3846 features low outputs in the OFF state.
