n DESCRIPTION
The AIC3842 control IC provides the features
that are necessary to implement off-line or
DC/DC Converter fixed-frequency current-mode
schemes with a minimum number of external
components. This integrated circuits features
an undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with
approximately 300µA start-up current, a
precision reference trimmed for accuracy at the
error amplifier input, high gain error amplifier,
current sensing comparator, logic to insure
latched operation, and a totem-pole output
stage designed to source or sink high peak
current. The output stage, suitable for driving N
channel MOSFETs, is low in the off state.
