DESCRIPTION
TheUC384xBfamilyofcontrolICsprovidesthenec-
essary features to implement off-line or DC to DC
fixedfrequencycurrent modecontrol schemes with
a minimal external parts count. Internally imple-
mentedcircuits includea trimmed oscillator for pre-
cise DUTY CYCLE CONTROL under voltage lock-
outfeaturingstart-upcurrentlessthan0.5mA,a pre-
cision reference trimmed for accuracy at the error
ampinput,logicto insurelatchedoperation,a PWM
comparatorwhichalsoprovidescurrentlimitcontrol,
and a totem pole output stage designed to source
orsinkhighpeakcurrent.Theoutputstage,suitable
for driving N-Channel MOSFETs, is low in the off-
state.
Differencesbetween members of this family are the
under-voltagelockoutthresholdsand maximum duty
cycle ranges. The UC3842B and UC3844B have
UVLO thresholds of 16V (on) and 10V (off), ideally

cycles approaching100%. A range of the zero to <
50 % is obtainedby the UC3844Band UC3845Bby
