Note 3: Parameter measured at trip point of latch with FB at 0V.
Note 4: Start threshold and Zener Shunt threshold track one another.
Note 5: Does not include current in the external oscillator network.
Note 6: For UCCx808-1, set VDD above the start threshold before setting at 10V.
Note 7: The internal current sink on the CS pin is designed to discharge an external filter capacitor. It is not intended to be a DC
sink path.
COMP: COMP is the output of the error amplifier and the
input of the PWM comparator. The error amplifier in the
UCC3808 is a true low-output impedance, 2MHz operational amplifier. As such, the COMP pin can both source
and sink current. However, the error amplifier is internally
current limited, so that zero duty cycle can be externally
forced by pulling COMP to GND.
The UCC3808 family features built-in full cycle soft start.
Soft start is implemented as a clamp on the maximum
COMP voltage.
CS: The input to the PWM, peak current, and
overcurrent comparators. The overcurrent comparator is
only intended for fault sensing. Exceeding the
overcurrent threshold will cause a soft start cycle. An internal MOSFET discharges the current sense filter capacitor to improve dynamic performance of the power
converter.
FB: The inverting input to the error amplifier. For best
stability, keep FB lead length as short as possible and FB
stray capacitance as small as possible.
GND: Reference ground and power ground for all functions. Due to high currents, and high frequency operation
of the UCC3808, a low impedance circuit board ground
plane is highly recommended.
OUTA and OUTB: Alternating high current output
stages. Both stages are capable of driving the gate of a
power MOSFET. Each stage is capable of 500mA peak
source current, and 1A peak sink current.
The output stages switch at half the oscillator frequency,
in a push/pull configuration. When the voltage on the RC
pin is rising, one of the two outputs is high, but during fall
time, both outputs are off. This “dead time” between the
two outputs, along with a slower output rise time than fall
time, insures that the two outputs can not be on at the
same time. This dead time is typically 60ns to 200ns and
depends upon the values of the timing capacitor and resistor.
The high-current output drivers consist of MOSFET output devices, which switch from VDD to GND. Each 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.
RC: The oscillator programming pin. The UCC3808’s oscillator tracks VDD and GND internally, so that variations
in power supply rails minimally affect frequency stability.
Fig. 1 shows the oscillator block diagram.
Only two components are required to program the oscillator, a resistor (tied to the VDD and RC), and a capacitor (tied to the RC and GND). The approximate oscillator
frequency is determined by the simple formula:
