The UC3844, UC3845 series are high performance fixed frequency
current mode controllers. They are specifically designed for Off−Line
and DC−to−DC converter applications offering the designer a cost
effective solution with minimal external components. These integrated
circuits feature an oscillator, a temperature compensated reference, high
gain error amplifier, current sensing comparator, and a high current
totem pole output ideally suited for driving a power MOSFET.
Also included are protective features consisting of input and
reference undervoltage lockouts each with hysteresis, cycle−by−cycle
current limiting, a latch for single pulse metering, and a flip−flop which
blanks the output off every other oscillator cycle, allowing output dead
times to be programmed for 50% to 70%.
These devices are available in an 8−pin dual−in−line plastic package
as well as the 14−pin plastic surface mount (SOIC−14). The SOIC−14
package has separate power and ground pins for the totem pole output
stage.
The UCX844 has UVLO thresholds of 16 V (on) and 10 V (off),
ideally suited for off−line converters. The UCX845 is tailored for
lower voltage applications having UVLO thresholds of 8.5 V (on) and
7.6 V (off).

OPERATING DESCRIPTION
The UC3844, UC3845 series are high performance, fixed
frequency, current mode controllers. They are specifically
designed for Off−Line and DC−to−DC converter
applications offering the designer a cost effective solution
with minimal external components. A representative block
diagram is shown in Figure 16.
Oscillator
The oscillator frequency is programmed by the values
selected for the timing components R
and CT. Capacitor C
T
is charged from the 5.0 V reference through resistor RT to
approximately 2.8 V and discharged to 1.2 V by an internal
current sink. During the discharge of C
, the oscillator
T
generates an internal blanking pulse that holds the center
input of the NOR gate high. This causes the Output to be in
a low state, thus producing a controlled amount of output
deadtime. An internal flip−flop has been incorporated in the
UCX844/5 which blanks the output off every other clock
cycle by holding one of the inputs of the NOR gate high. This
in combination with the C
discharge period yields output
T
deadtimes programmable from 50% to 70%. Figure 2 shows
R
versus Oscillator Frequency and Figure 3, Output
T
Deadtime versus Frequency, both for given values of C
Note that many values of R
and CT will give the same
T
oscillator frequency but only one combination will yield a
specific output deadtime at a given frequency.
In many noise sensitive applications it may be desirable to
frequency−lock the converter to an external system clock.
This can be accomplished by applying a clock signal to the
circuit shown in Figure 18. For reliable locking, the
free−running oscillator frequency should be set about 10%
less than the clock frequency. A method for multi unit
synchronization is shown in Figure 19. By tailoring the
clock waveform, accurate Output duty cycle clamping can
be achieved to realize output deadtimes of greater than 70%.
Error Amplifier
A fully compensated Error Amplifier with access to the
inverting input and output is provided. It features a typical
dc voltage gain of 90 dB, and a unity gain bandwidth of
1.0 MHz with 57 degrees of phase margin (Figure 6). The
noninverting input is internally biased at 2.5 V and is not
pinned out. The converter output voltage is typically divided
down and monitored by the inverting input. The maximum
input bias current is −2.0 mA which can cause an output
voltage error that is equal to the product of the input bias
current and the equivalent input divider source resistance.
The Error Amp Output (Pin 1) is provide for external loop
compensation (Figure 29). The output voltage is offset by
two diode drops (≈ 1.4 V) and divided by three before it
connects to the inverting input of the Current Sense
Comparator. This guarantees that no drive pulses appear at
the Output (Pin 6) when Pin 1 is at its lowest state (V
OL
This occurs when the power supply is operating and the load
is removed, or at the beginning of a soft−start interval
(Figures 21, 22). The Error Amp minimum feedback
resistance is limited by the amplifier’s source current
(0.5 mA) and the required output voltage (V
) to reach the
OH
comparator’s 1.0 V clamp level:

Current Sense Comparator and PWM Latch
T
3.0 (1.0 V) + 1.4 V
≈
0.5 mA
= 8800 W
The UC3844, UC3845 operate as a current mode
controller, whereby output switch conduction is initiated by
the oscillator and terminated when the peak inductor current
reaches the threshold level established by the Error
Amplifier Output/Compensation (Pin 1). Thus the error
signal controls the inductor current on a cycle−by−cycle
basis. The current Sense Comparator PWM Latch
configuration used ensures that only a single pulse appears
at the Output during any given oscillator cycle. The inductor
current is converted to a voltage by inserting the ground
referenced sense resistor R
in series with the source of
S
output switch Q1. This voltage is monitored by the Current
.

Error Amp Output. The peak inductor current under normal
operating conditions is controlled by the voltage at pin 1
where:

Ipk =
(Pin 1)
3 R
S
Abnormal operating conditions occur when the power
supply output is overloaded or if output voltage sensing is
lost. Under these conditions, the Current Sense Comparator
threshold will be internally clamped to 1.0 V. Therefore the
maximum peak switch current is:
I
pk(max)
1.0 V
=
R
S
When designing a high power switching regulator it
becomes desirable to reduce the internal clamp voltage in
order to keep the power dissipation of R
to a reasonable
S
level. A simple method to adjust this voltage is shown in
Figure 20. The two external diodes are used to compensate
the internal diodes yielding a constant clamp voltage over
temperature. Erratic operation due to noise pickup can result
if there is an excessive reduction of the I
pk(max)
clamp
voltage.
A narrow spike on the leading edge of the current
waveform can usually be observed and may cause the power
supply to exhibit an instability when the output is lightly
loaded. This spike is due to the power transformer
interwinding capacitance and output rectifier recovery time.
The addition of an RC filter on the Current Sense Input with
a time constant that approximates the spike duration will
usually eliminate the instability; refer to Figure 24.

Undervoltage Lockout
Two undervoltage lockout comparators have been
incorporated to guarantee that the IC is fully functional
before the output stage is enabled. The positive power
supply terminal (V
and the reference output (V
CC
ref
) are
each monitored by separate comparators. Each has built−in
hysteresis to prevent erratic output behavior as their
respective thresholds are crossed. The V
comparator
CC
upper and lower thresholds are 16 V/10 V for the UCX844,
and 8.4 V/7.6 V for the UCX845. The V
comparator upper
ref
and lower thresholds are 3.6 V/3/4 V. The large hysteresis
and low startup current of the UCX844 makes it ideally
suited in off−line converter applications where efficient
bootstrap startup techniques later required (Figure 30). The
UCX845 is intended for lower voltage DC−to−DC converter
applications. A 36 V zener is connected as a shunt regulator
from V
to ground. Its purpose is to protect the IC from
CC
excessive voltage that can occur during system startup. The
minimum operating voltage for the UCX844 is 11 V and
8.2 V for the UCX845.
Output
These devices contain a single totem pole output stage that
was specifically designed for direct drive of power
MOSFETs. It is capable of up to± 1.0 A peak drive current
and has a typical rise and fall time of 50 ns with a 1.0 nF load.
Additional internal circuitry has been added to keep the
Output in a sinking mode whenever and undervoltage
lockout is active. This characteristic eliminates the need for
an external pull−down resistor.
The SOIC−14 surface mount package provides separate
pins for V
(output supply) and Power Ground. Proper
C
implementation will significantly reduce the level of
switching transient noise imposed on the control circuitry.
This becomes particularly useful when reducing the I
pk(max)
clamp level. The separate VC supply input allows the
designer added flexibility in tailoring the drive voltage
independent of V
A zener clamp is typically connected
CC.
to this input when driving power MOSFETs in systems
where V
is greater the 20 V. Figure 23 shows proper
CC
power and control ground connections in a current sensing
power MOSFET application.
Reference
The 5.0 V bandgap reference is trimmed to± 1.0%
tolerance at T
= 25°C on the UC284X, and± 2.0% on the
J
UC384X. Its primary purpose is to supply charging current
to the oscillator timing capacitor. The reference has short
circuit protection and is capable of providing in excess of
20 mA for powering additional control system circuitry.
Design Considerations
Do not attempt to construct the converter on
wire−wrap or plug−in prototype boards. High frequency
circuit layout techniques are imperative to prevent
pulsewidth jitter. This is usually caused by excessive noise
pick−up imposed on the Current Sense or Voltage Feedback
inputs. Noise immunity can be improved by lowering circuit
impedances at these points. The printed circuit layout should
contain a ground plane with low−current signal and
high−current switch and output grounds returning on
separate paths back to the input filter capacitor. Ceramic
bypass capacitors (0.1 mF) connected directly to V
and V
may be required depending upon circuit layout.
ref
CC
, VC,
This provides a low impedance path for filtering the high
frequency noise. All high current loops should be kept as
short as possible using heavy copper runs to minimize
radiated EMI. The Error Amp compensation circuitry and
the converter output voltage divider should be located close
to the IC and as far as possible from the power switch and
other noise generating components.
