DESCRIPTION
The UC2825A pulse-width modulation (PWM)
controller is an improved versions of the standard
UC3825. Performance enhancements have been
made to several of the circuit blocks. Error amplifier
gain bandwidth product is 12 MHz, while input offset
voltage is 2 mV. Current limit threshold is specified to
a tolerance of 5%. Oscillator discharge current is
specified at 10 mA for accurate dead-time control.
Frequency accuracy is improved to 6%. Startup
supply current, typically 100 μA, is ideal for off-line
applications. The output drivers are redesigned to
actively sink current during undervoltage lockout
(UVLO) at no expense to the startup current
specification. In addition, each output is capable of
2-A peak currents during transitions.

These devices have limited built-in ESD protection. The leads should be shorted together or the device placed in conductive foam
during storage or handling to prevent electrostatic damage to the MOS gates.
DESCRIPTION (CONTINUED)
Functional improvements have also been implemented. The shutdown comparator is now a high-speed
overcurrent comparator with a threshold of 1.2 V. The overcurrent comparator sets a latch that ensures full
discharge of the soft-start capacitor before allowing a restart. While the fault latch is set, the outputs are in the
low state. In the event of continuous faults, the soft-start capacitor is fully charged before discharge to insure that
the fault frequency does not exceed the designed soft start period. The CLOCK pin has become CLK/LEB. This
pin combines the functions of clock output and leading edge blanking adjustment and has been buffered for
easier interfacing.
The UC2825A has dual alternating outputs and the same pin configuration of the UC3825. "A" version parts have
UVLO thresholds identical to the original UC3825.
See the application report, The UC3823A,B and UC3825A,B Enhanced Generation of PWM Controllers

APPLICATION INFORMATION
The oscillator is a sawtooth. The rising edge is governed by a current controlled by the RT pin and value of
capacitance at the CT pin (CCT). The falling edge of the sawtooth sets dead time for the outputs. Selection of RT
should be done first, based on desired maximum duty cycle. CT can then be chosen based on the desired
frequency (RT) and DMAX. The design equations are:

Leading Edge Blanking (LEB)
The UC2825A performs fixed-frequency PWM control. The outputs are alternately controlled. During every other
cycle, one output is off. Each output then switches at one-half the oscillator frequency, varying in duty cycle from
0% to less than 50%.
To limit maximum duty cycle, the internal clock pulse blanks both outputs low during the discharge time of the
oscillator. On the falling edge of the clock, the appropriate output(s) is driven high. The end of the pulse is
controlled by the PWM comparator, current limit comparator, or the overcurrent comparator.
Normally the PWM comparator senses a ramp crossing a control voltage (error amplifier output) and terminates
the pulse. LEB causes the PWM comparator to be ignored for a fixed amount of time after the start of the pulse.
This allows noise inherent with switched mode power conversion to be rejected. The PWM ramp input may not
require any filtering as result of LEB.
To program a LEB period, connect a capacitor, C, to CLK/LEB. The discharge time set by C and the internal
10-kΩ resistor determines the blanked interval. The 10-kΩ resistor has a 10% tolerance. For more accuracy, an
external 2-kΩ 1% resistor (R) can be added, resulting in an equivalent resistance of 1.66 kΩ with a tolerance of
2.4%. The design equation is:
t LEB + 0.5 ǒR ø 10 kWǓ C
(2)
Values of R less than 2 kΩ should not be used.
LEB is also applied to the current limit comparator. After LEB, if the ILIM pin exceeds the 1-V threshold, the
pulse is terminated. The overcurrent comparator, however, is not blanked. It catches catastrophic overcurrent
faults without a blanking delay. Any time the ILIM pin exceeds 1.2 V, the fault latch is set and the outputs driven
low. For this reason, some noise filtering may be required on the ILIM pin.

UVLO, Soft Start, and Fault Management
Soft start is programmed by a capacitor on the SS pin. At power up, SS is discharged. When SS is low, the error
amplifier output is also forced low. While the internal 9-μA source charges the SS pin, the error amplifier output
follows until closed loop regulation takes over.
Anytime ILIM exceeds 1.2 V, the fault latch is set and the output pins are driven low. The soft-start capacitor is
then discharged by a 250-μA current sink. No more output pulses are allowed until the soft-start capacitor is fully
discharged and ILIM is below 1.2 V. At this time, the fault latch resets and the chip executes a soft start.
Should the fault latch get set during soft start, the outputs are immediately terminated, but the soft-start capacitor
does not discharge until it has been fully charged first. This results in a controlled hiccup interval for continuous
fault conditions.

Synchronization
The oscillator can be synchronized by an external pulse inserted in series with the timing capacitor. Program the
free-running frequency of the oscillator to be 10% to 15% slower than the desired synchronous frequency. The
pulse width should be greater than 10 ns and less than half the discharge time of the oscillator. The rising edge
of the CLK/LEB pin can be used to generate a synchronizing pulse for other chips. Note that the CLK/LEB pin no
longer accepts an incoming synchronizing signal.

High-Current Outputs
Each totem pole output can deliver a 2-A peak current into a capacitive load. The output can slew a 1000-pF
capacitor by 15 V in approximately 20 ns. Separate collector supply (VC) and power ground (PGND) pins help
decouple the device's analog circuitry from the high-power gate drive noise. The use of 3-A Schottky diodes
(1N5120, USD245, or equivalent) (see Figure 13) from each output to both VC and PGND are recommended.
The diodes clamp the output swing to the supply rails, necessary with any type of inductive/capacitive load,
typical of a MOSFET gate. Schottky diodes must be used because a low forward voltage drop is required. Do not
use standard silicon diodes.
Although they are single-ended devices, two output drivers are available on the UC2825A. These can be
paralleled by the use of a 0.5-Ω (noninductive) resistor connected in series with each output for a combined peak
current of 4 A.

Ground Planes
Each output driver of these devices is capable of 2-A peak currents. Careful layout is essential for correct
operation of the chip. A ground plane must be employed. A unique section of the ground plane must be
designated for high di/dt currents associated with the output stages. This point is the power ground to which the
PGND pin is connected. Power ground can be separated from the rest of the ground plane and connected at a
single point, although this is not necessary if the high di/dt paths are well understood and accounted for. VCC
should be bypassed directly to power ground with a good high-frequency capacitor. The sources of the power
MOSFET should connect to power ground, as should the return connection for input power to the system and the
bulk input capacitor. The output should be clamped with a high-current Schottky diode to both VCC and PGND.
Nothing else should be connected to power ground.
VREF should be bypassed directly to the signal portion of the ground plane with a good high-frequency
capacitor. Low ESR/ESL ceramic 1-mF capacitors are recommended for both VCC and VREF. All analog
circuitry should, likewise, be bypassed to the signal ground plane.

such use. Buyers represent that they have all necessary expertise in the safety and regulatory ramifications of their applications, and
acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for all legal, regulatory and safety-related requirements concerning their products
and any use of TI products in such safety-critical applications, notwithstanding any applications-related information or support that may be
provided by TI. Further, Buyers must fully indemnify TI and its representatives against any damages arising out of the use of TI products in
such safety-critical applications.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in military/aerospace applications or environments unless the TI products are
specifically designated by TI as military-grade or "enhanced plastic." Only products designated by TI as military-grade meet military
specifications. Buyers acknowledge and agree that any such use of TI products which TI has not designated as military-grade is solely at
the Buyer's risk, and that they are solely responsible for compliance with all legal and regulatory requirements in connection with such use.
TI products are neither designed nor intended for use in automotive applications or environments unless the specific TI products are
designated by TI as compliant with ISO/TS 16949 requirements. Buyers acknowledge and agree that, if they use any non-designated
products in automotive applications, TI will not be responsible for any failure to meet such requirements.
