High Performance
Current Mode Controllers
The UC3844B, UC3845B series are high performance fixed frequency
current mode controllers. They are specifically designed for OffLine
and dcdc converter applications offering the designer a costeffective
solution with minimal external components. These integrated circuits
feature an oscillator, a temperature compensated reference, high gain
error amplifier, current sensing comparator, and a high current totem pole
output ideally suited for driving a power MOSFET.
Also included are protective features consisting of input and
reference undervoltage lockouts each with hysteresis, cyclebycycle
current limiting, a latch for single pulse metering, and a flipflop
which blanks the output off every other oscillator cycle, allowing
output deadtimes to be programmed from 50% to 70%.
These devices are available in an 8pin dualinline and surface
mount (SOIC8) plastic package as well as the 14pin plastic surface
mount (SOIC14). The SOIC14 package has separate power and
ground pins for the totem pole output stage.
The UCX844B has UVLO thresholds of 16V (on) and 10V (off), ideally
suited for offline converters. The UCX845B is tailored for lower voltage
applications having UVLO thresholds of 8.5V (on) and 7.6V (off).
Features
Trimmed Oscillator for Precise Frequency Control
Oscillator Frequency Guaranteed at 250 kHz
Current Mode Operation to 500 kHz Output Switching Frequency
Output Deadtime Adjustable from 50% to 70%

Stresses exceeding Maximum Ratings may damage the device. Maximum Ratings are stress ratings only. Functional operation above the
Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied. Extended exposure to stresses above the Recommended Operating Conditions may affect
device reliability.
1. The voltage is clamped by a zener diode (see page 9 Under Voltage Lockout section). Therefore this voltage may be exceeded as long as
the total power supply and zener current is not exceeded.
2. Maximum package power dissipation limits must be observed.
3. This device series contains ESD protection and exceeds the following tests: Human Body Model 4000 V per JEDEC Standard
JESD22-A114B, Machine Model Method 200 V per JEDEC Standard JESD22-A115-A
4. This device contains latch-up protection and exceeds 100 mA per JEDEC Standard JESD78
