High Performance Industry Standard
Single-Ended Current Mode PWM
Controller
The ISL884xA is a high performance drop-in replacement for
the popular 28C4x and 18C4x PWM controllers suitable for a
wide range of power conversion applications including
boost, flyback, and isolated output configurations. Its fast
signal propagation and output switching characteristics
make this an ideal product for existing and new designs.
Features include 30V operation, low operating current, 90μA
start-up current, adjustable operating frequency to 2MHz,
and high peak current drive capability with 20ns rise and fall
times.
