DESCRIPTION
Automatic Feed Forward Compensation
•
The UC1846/7 family of control ICs provides all of the necessary
features to implement fixed frequency, current mode control
Programmable Pulse-by-Pulse Current
schemes while maintaining a minimum external parts count. The
Limiting
superior performance of this technique can be measured in imAutomatic Symmetry Correction in Push-pull proved line regulation, enhanced load response characteristics, and
Configuration
a simpler, easier-to-design control loop. Topological advantages include inherent pulse-by-pulse current limiting capability, automatic
Enhanced Load Response Characteristics
symmetry correction for push-pull converters, and the ability to parParallel Operation Capability for Modular
allel “power modules" while maintaining equal current sharing.
Power Systems
Protection circuitry includes built-in under-voltage lockout and proDifferential Current Sense Amplifier with
grammable current limit in addition to soft start capability. A shutWide Common Mode Range
down function is also available which can initiate either a complete
shutdown with automatic restart or latch the supply off.

Eco Plan - The planned eco-friendly classification: Pb-Free (RoHS) or Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br) - please check
http://www.ti.com/productcontent for the latest availability information and additional product content details.
TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements
for all 6 substances, including the requirement that lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered
at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame
retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous material)
