The UC1526 is a high performance monolithic pulse width modulator
circuit designed for fixed-frequency switching regulators and other
power control appl ications. Included in an 18-pin dual-in-line package are a temperature compensated voltage reference, sawtooth oscillator, error amplifier, pulse width modulator, pulse metering and
setting logic, and two low impedance power drivers. Also included
are protective features such as soft-start and under-voltage lockout,
digital current limiting, double pulse inhibit, a data latch for single
pulse metering, adjustable deadtime, and provision for symmetry correction inputs. For ease of interface, all digital control ports are TTL
and B-series CMOS compatible. Active LOW logic design allows
wired-OR connections for maximum flexibilit y. This versatile device
can be used to impl ement single-ende d or push-p ull switching regulators of either polarity, both transformerless and transformer coupled. The UC1526 is characterized for operation over the full military
temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. The UC2526 is characterized
for operation from -25°C to +85°C, and the UC3526 is characterized
for operation from 0° to +70°C.
+VIN = 15V, and over operating ambient temper at ure, unless othe rwise
specified, TA = TJ.

The reference regulator of the UC1526 is based on a tem-
perature compensated ze ner diode. The circuitry is fully
active at supply voltag es above +8V, and provides up to
20mA of load current to external circuitry at +5.0V. In systems where additional current is required, an external
PNP transistor can be used to boost the available current.
A rugged low frequency audio-type transistor should be
used, and lead lengths between the PWM and transistor
should be as sho rt as possible to minimize the risk of oscillations. Even so, some types of transistors may require
collector-base capacitance for stability. Up to 1 amp of
load current can b e obtained with excellent regulati on if
the device selected maintains high current gain.

rectifier diodes from high current surges during power

linearly increases to whatever value the voltage regulation loop requires for an error null.
