(1.5A Peak)
The UC1824 family of PWM control ICs is optimized for high frequency switched mode power supply applications. Particular care
was given to minimizing propagation delays through the comparators
and logic circuitry while maximizing bandwidth and slew rate of the
error amplifier. This controller is designed for use in either currentmode or voltage mode systems with the capability for input voltage
feed-forward.

•
Fully Latched Logic with Double Pulse

•
Pulse-by-Pulse Current Limiting
•
Soft Start / Max. Duty Cycle Control
•
Under-Voltage Lockout with Hysteresis
•
Low Start Up Current (1.1 mA)
•
Trimmed Bandgap Reference (5.1V ± 1%)
Protection circuitry includes a current limit comparator with a 1V
threshold, a TTL compatible shutdown port, and a soft start pin which
will double as a maximum duty cycle clamp. The logic is fully latched
to provide jitter free operation and prohibit multiple pulses at an output. An under-voltage lockout section with 800mV of hysteresis assures low start up current. During under-voltage lockout, the outputs
are high impedance.
These devices feature totem pole outputs designed to source and
sink high peak currents from capacitive loads, such as the gate of a
power MOSFET. The on state is designed as a high level.

UC1824 Printed Circuit Board Layout Considerations
High speed circuits demand careful attention to layout
and component placement. To assure proper performance
of the UC1824 follow these rules: 1) Use a ground plane.
2) Damp or clamp parasitic inductive kick energy from the
gate of driven MOSFETs. Do not allow the output pins to
ring below ground. A series gate resistor or a shunt 1 Amp
Schottky diode at the output pin will serve this purpose. 3)
Bypass VCC, VC, and VREF. Use 0.1µF monolithic ceramic
capacitors with low equivalent series inductance. Allow
less than 1 cm of total lead length for each capacitor between the bypassed pin and the ground plane. 4) Treat
the timing capacitor, CT, like a bypass capacitor.

Forward Technique for Off-Line Voltage Mode Application
Constant Volt-Second Clamp Circuit
The circuit shown here will achieve a constant volt-second product clamp over varying input voltages. The
ramp generator components, RT and CR are chosen so
that the ramp at Pin 9 crosses the 1V threshold at the
same time the desired maximum volt-second product
is reached. The delay through the functional nor block
must be such that the ramp capacitor can be completely discharged during the minimum deadtime.
