PIN DESCRIPTIONS
COMP: COMP is the output of the error amplifier and the
input of the PWM comparator.
Unlike other devices, the error amplifier in the UCC3800
family is a true, low output-impedance, 2MHz operational
amplifier. As such, the COMP terminal can both source
and sink current. However, the error amplifier is internally
current limited, so that you can command zero duty cycle
by externally forcing COMP to GND.
The UCC3800 family features built-in full cycle Soft Start.
Soft Start is implemented as a clamp on the maximum
COMP voltage.
CS: CS is the input to the current sense comparators.
The UCC3800 family has two different current sense
comparators: the PWM comparator and an over-current
comparator.
The UCC3800 family contains digital current sense filtering, which disconnects the CS terminal from the current
sense comparator during the 100ns interval immediately
following the rising edge of the OUT pin. This digital filtering, also called leading-edge blanking, means that in
most applications, no analog filtering (RC filter) is required on CS. Compared to an external RC filter technique, the leading-edge blanking provides a smaller
effective CS to OUT propagation delay. Note, however,
that the minimum non-zero On-Time of the OUT signal is
directly affected by the leading-edge-blanking and the
CS to OUT propagation delay.
The over-current comparator is only intended for fault
sensing, and exceeding the over-current threshold will
cause a soft start cycle.
FB: FB is the inverting input of the error amplifier. For
best stability, keep FB lead length as short as possible
and FB stray capacitance as small as possible.
GND: GND is reference ground and power ground for all
functions on this part.
OUT: OUT is the output of a high-current power driver
capable of driving the gate of a power MOSFET with
peak currents exceeding ± 750mA. OUT is actively held
low when V
CC
is below the UVLO threshold.
The high-current power driver consists of FET output devices, which can switch all of the way to GND and all of
thewaytoV
CC
. The output stage also provides a very
low impedance to overshoot and undershoot. This means
that in many cases, external schottky clamp diodes are
not required.
