MICROSEMI SG1846J

SG1846/SG2846/SG3846
CURRENT MODE PWM CONTROLLER
DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The SG1846 family of control ICs provides all of the necessary
features to implement fixed frequency, current mode control
schemes while maintaining a minimum external parts count. The
superior performance of this technique can be measured in improved line regulation, enhanced load response characteristics,
and a simpler, easier-to-design control loop. Topological advantages include inherent pulse-by-pulse current limiting capability,
automatic symmetry correction for push-pull converters, and the
ability to parallel “power modules” while maintaining equal current
sharing.
• Automatic feed forward compensation
• Programmable pulse by pulse current limiting
• Automatic symmetry correction in push-pull
configuration
• Enhanced load response characteristics
• Parallel operation capability for modular power
systems
• Differential current sense amplifier with wide
common mode range
• Double pulse suppression
• 200mA totem-pole outputs
• ± 1% bandgap reference
• Under-voltage lockout
• Soft-start capability
• Shutdown capability
• 500KHz operation
Protection circuitry includes built-in under-voltage lockout and
programmable current limit in addition to soft start capability. A
shutdown function is also available which can initiate either a
complete shutdown with automatic restart or latch the supply off.
Other features include fully latched operation, double pulse suppression, deadtime adjust capability, and a ±1% trimmed bandgap
reference.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS
(Unless otherwise specified, these specifications apply over the operating ambient temperatures for SG1846/SG1847 with -55°C ≤ TA ≤ 125°C, SG2846
with -25°C ≤ TA ≤ 85°C, SG3846 with 0°C ≤ TA ≤ 70°C, +VIN = 15V. Low duty cycle pulse testing techniques are used which maintains junction and
case temperatures equal to the ambient temperature.)
