The LT
®
1246/LT1247 are 8-pin, fixed frequency, current
mode, pulse width modulators. These devices are de-
signed to be improved plug compatible versions of the
industry standard UC1842 PWM circuit. The LT1246/
LT1247 are optimized for off-line and DC/DC converter
applications. They contain a temperature compensated
reference, high gain error amplifier, current sensing com-
parator, and a high current totem pole output stage ideally
suited to driving power MOSFETs. Start-up current has
been reduced to less than 250µA. Cross-conduction cur-
rent spikes in the totem pole output stage have been
eliminated, making 1MHz operation practical. Several new
features have been incorporated. Leading edge blanking
has been added to the current sense comparator. This
minimizes or eliminates the filter that is normally required.
Eliminating this filter allows the current sense loop to
operate with minimum delays. Trims have been added to
the oscillator circuit for both frequency and sink current,
and both of these parameters are tightly specified. The
output stage is clamped to a maximum V
OUT
of 18V in the
on state. The output and the reference output are actively
pulled low during under-voltage lockout.
