Improved Industry Standard Single-Ended
Current Mode PWM Controller
The ISL6840, ISL6841, ISL6842, ISL6843, ISL6844,
ISL6845 family of adjustable frequency, low power, pulse
width modulating (PWM) current mode controllers is
designed for a wide range of power conversion applications
including boost, flyback, and isolated output configurations.
Peak current mode control effectively handles power
transients and provides inherent overcurrent protection.
This advanced BiCMOS design is pin compatible with the
industry standard 384x family of controllers and offers
significantly improved performance. Features include low
operating current, 60µA start-up current, adjustable
operating frequency to 2MHz, and high peak current drive
capability with 20ns rise and fall times.
