High Performance Current Mode Controllers
Also included are protective features consisting of input and reference undervoltage lockouts each with hysteresis, cycle–by–cycle current limiting, programmable output deadtime, and a latch for single pulse metering.
These devices are available in an 8–pin dual–in–line plastic package as well as the 14–pin plastic surface mount (SO–14). The SO–14 package has separate power and ground pins for the totem pole output stage.
The UCX842A has UYLO thresholds of 16 V (on) and 10 V (off), ideally suited for off–line converters. The UCX843A is tailored for lower voltage applications having UVLO thresholds of 8.5 V (on) and
7.6 V (off).

OPERATING DESCRIPTION
The UC3842A, UC3843A 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 18.
Oscillator
The oscillator frequency is programmed by the values selected for the timing components RT and CT. Capacitor C 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 CT, the oscillator generates and 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. Figure 2 shows RT versus Oscillator Frequency and Figure 3, Output Deadtime versus Frequency, both for given values of CT. Note that many values of RT and CT will give the same oscillator frequency but only one combination will yield a specific output deadtime at a given frequency. The oscillator thresholds are temperature compensated, and the discharge current is trimmed and guaranteed to within ±10% at T
= 25°C. These internal circuit refinements
J
minimize variations of oscillator frequency and maximum output duty cycle. The results are shown in Figures 4 and 5.
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 21. 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 22. By tailoring the clock waveform, accurate Output duty cycle clamping can be achieved.
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 8). 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 µA 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 31). 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 24, 25). The Error Amp minimum feedback resistance is limited by the amplifier’s source current (0.5 mA) and the required output voltage (V comparator’s 1.0 V clamp level:

T
The UC3842A, UC3843A operate as a current mode

0.5 mA
= 8800
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 (Pin1). Thus the error signal controls the peak 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
S
of output switch Q1. This voltage is monitored by the Current Sense Input (Pin 3) and compared a level derived from the Error Amp Output. The peak inductor current under normal operating conditions is controlled by the voltage at pin 1 where:
– 1.4 V
V
Ipk =
(Pin 1)

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:

1.0 V
=

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 RS to a reasonable level. A simple method to adjust this voltage is shown in Figure 23. 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 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 27.

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 VCC comparator upper and lower thresholds are 16 V/10 V for the UCX842A, and 8.4 V/7.6 V for the UCX843A. The V
comparator
ref
upper and lower thresholds are 3.6V/3.4 V. The large hysteresis and low startup current of the UCX842A makes it ideally suited in off–line converter applications where efficient bootstrap startup techniques are required (Figure 34). The UCX843A is intended for lower voltage dc to dc converter applications. A 36 V zener is connected as a shunt regulator form V
to ground. Its purpose is to
CC
protect the IC from excessive voltage that can occur during system startup. The minimum operating voltage for the UCX842A is 11 V and 8.2 V for the UCX843A.
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 an undervoltage lockout is active. This characteristic eliminates the need for an external pull–down resistor.
The SO–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 VCC is greater than 20 V. Figure 26 shows proper 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 TJ = 25°C on the UC284XA, and ± 2.0% on the UC384XA. 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 pr ototype 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 µF) 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.
Current mode converters can exhibit subharmonic oscillations when operating at a duty cycle greater than 50% with continuous inductor current. This instability is independent of the regulators closed–loop characteristics and is caused by the simultaneous operating conditions of fixed frequency and peak current detecting. Figure 20A shows the phenomenon graphically. At t
, switch
0
conduction begins, causing the inductor current to rise at a slope of m1. This slope is a function of the input voltage divided by the inductance. At t
, the Current Sense Input
1
reaches the threshold established by the control voltage. This causes the switch to turn off and the current to decay at a slope of m2 until the next oscillator cycle. The unstable condition can be shown if a pertubation is added to the control voltage, resulting in a smallI (dashed line). With a fixed oscillator period, the current decay time is reduced, and the minimum current at switch turn–on (t
) is increased
2
byI +I m2/m1. The minimum current at the next cycle
(t3) decreases to (I + ∆I m2/m1) (m2/m1). This pertubation is multiplied by m2.m1 on each succeeding cycle, alternately increasing and decreasing the inductor current at switch turn–on. Several oscillator cycles may be required before the inductor current reaches zero causing the process to commence again. If m
is greater than 1, the converter
2/m1
will be unstable. Figure 20B shows that by adding an artificial ramp that is synchronized with the PWM clock to the control voltage, the ∆I pertubation will decrease to zero on succeeding cycles. This compensation ramp (m
) must
3
have a slope equal to or slightly greater than m2/2 for stability. With m2/2 slope compensation, the average inductor current follows the control voltage yielding true current mode operation. The compensating ramp can be derived from the oscillator and added to either the Voltage Feedback or Current Sense inputs (Figure 33).
