The UC3844, UC3845 series are high performance fixed frequency
current mode controllers. They are specifically designed for Off–Line and
dc–to–dc converter applications offering the designer a cost effective
solution with minimal external components. These integrated circuits feature
an oscillator, a temperature compensated reference, high gain error
amplifier, current sensing comparator, and a high current totem pole output
ideally suited for driving a power MOSFET.
Also included are protective features consisting of input and reference
undervoltage lockouts each with hysteresis, cycle–by–cycle current limiting,
a latch for single pulse metering, and a flip–flop which blanks the output off
every other oscillator cycle, allowing output deadtimes to be programmed for
50% to 70%.
These devices are available in an 8–pin dual–in–line plastic package as
well as the 14–pin plastic surface mount (SO–14). The SO–14 package has
separate power and ground pins for the totem pole output stage.
The UCX844 has UVLO thresholds of 16 V (on) and 10 V (off), ideally
suited for off–line converters. The UCX845 is tailored for lower voltage
applications having UVLO thresholds of 8.5 V (on) and 7.6 V (off).

OPERATING DESCRIPTION
The UC3844, UC3845 series are high performance, fixed
frequency, current mode controllers. They are specifically
designed for Off–Line and dc–to–dc converter applications
offering the designer a cost effective solution with minimal
external components. A representative block diagram is
shown in Figure 15.
Oscillator
The oscillator frequency is programmed by the values
selected for the timing components RT and CT. Capacitor CT
is charged from the 5.0 V reference through resistor RT to
approximately 2.8 V and discharged to 1.2 V by an internal
current sink. During the discharge of CT, the oscillator
generates an internal blanking pulse that holds the center
input of the NOR gate high. This causes the Output to be in a
low state, thus producing a controlled amount of output
deadtime. An internal flip–flop has been incorporated in the
UCX844/5 which blanks the output off every other clock cycle
by holding one of the inputs of the NOR gate high. This in
combination with the CT discharge period yields output
deadtimes programmable from 50% to 70%. Figure 1 shows
RT versus Oscillator Frequency and figure 2, Output
Deadtime versus Frequency, both for given values of CT.
Note that many values of RT and CT will give the same
oscillator frequency but only one combination will yield a
specific output deadtime at a given frequency.
In many noise sensitive applications it may be desirable to
frequency–lock the converter to an external system clock.
This can be accomplished by applying a clock signal to the
circuit shown in Figure 17. For reliable locking, the
free–running oscillator frequency should be set about 10%
less than the clock frequency. A method for multi unit
synchronization is shown in Figure 18. By tailoring the clock
waveform, accurate Output duty cycle clamping can be
achieved to realize output deadtimes of greater than 70%
Error Amplifier
A fully compensated Error Amplifier with access to the
inverting input and output is provided. It features a typical dc
voltage gain of 90 dB, and a unity gain bandwidth of 1.0 MHz
with 57 degrees of phase margin (Figure 5). The noninverting
input is internally biased at 2.5 V and is not pinned out. The
converter output voltage is typically divided down and
monitored by the inverting input. The maximum input bias
current is –2.0 µA which can cause an output voltage error
that is equal to the product of the input bias current and the
equivalent input divider source resistance.
The Error Amp Output (Pin 1) is provide for external loop
compensation (Figure 28). The output voltage is offset by two
diode drops (≈ 1.4 V) and divided by three before it connects
to the inverting input of the Current Sense Comparator. This
guarantees that no drive pulses appear at the Output (Pin 6)
when Pin 1 is at its lowest state (VOL). This occurs when the
power supply is operating and the load is removed, or at the
beginning of a soft–start interval (Figures 20, 21). The Error
MOTOROLA ANALOG IC DEVICE DATA
Amp minimum feedback resistance is limited by the
amplifier’s source current (0.5 mA) and the required output
voltage (VOH) to reach the comparator’s 1.0 V clamp level:
Rf(min) ≈
3.0 (1.0 V) + 1.4 V
= 8800 Ω
0.5 mA
Current Sense Comparator and PWM Latch
The UC3844, UC3845 operate as a current mode
controller, whereby output switch conduction is initiated by
the oscillator and terminated when the peak inductor current
reaches the threshold level established by the Error Amplifier
Output/Compensation (Pin1). Thus the error signal controls
the inductor current on a cycle–by–cycle basis. The current
Sense Comparator PWM Latch configuration used ensures
that only a single pulse appears at the Output during any
given oscillator cycle. The inductor current is converted to a
voltage by inserting the ground referenced sense resistor RS
in series with the source of output switch Q1. This voltage is
monitored by the Current Sense Input (Pin 3) and compared
a level derived from the Error Amp Output. The peak inductor
current under normal operating conditions is controlled by the
voltage at pin 1 where:
V
– 1.4 V
Ipk = (Pin 1)
3 RS
Abnormal operating conditions occur when the power
supply output is overloaded or if output voltage sensing is
lost. Under these conditions, the Current Sense Comparator
threshold will be internally clamped to 1.0 V. Therefore the
maximum peak switch current is:
Ipk(max) =
1.0 V
RS
When designing a high power switching regulator it
becomes desirable to reduce the internal clamp voltage in
order to keep the power dissipation of RS to a reasonable
level. A simple method to adjust this voltage is shown in
Figure 19. The two external diodes are used to compensate
the internal diodes yielding a constant clamp voltage over
temperature. Erratic operation due to noise pickup can result
if there is an excessive reduction of the Ipk(max) clamp
voltage.
A narrow spike on the leading edge of the current
waveform can usually be observed and may cause the power
supply to exhibit an instability when the output is lightly
loaded. This spike is due to the power transformer
interwinding capacitance and output rectifier recovery time.
The addition of an RC filter on the Current Sense Input with a
time constant that approximates the spike duration will
usually eliminate the instability; refer to Figure 23.

Undervoltage Lockout
Two undervoltage lockout comparators have been
incorporated to guartantee that the IC is fully functional before
the output stage is enabled. The positive power supply
terminal (VCC and the reference output (Vref) are each
monitored by separate comparators. Each has built–in
hysteresis to prevent erratic output behavior as their
respective thresholds are crossed. The VCC comparator
upper and lower thresholds are 16 V/10 V for the UCX844,
and 8.4 V/7.6 V for the UCX845. The Vref comparator upper
and lower thresholds are 3.6 V/3/4 V. The large hysteresis
and low startup current of the UCX844 makes it ideally suited
in off–line converter applications where efficient bootstrap
startup techniques later required (Figure 29). The UCX845 is
intended for lower voltage dc–to–dc converter applications. A
36 V zener is connected as a shunt regulator from VCC to
ground. Its purpose is to protect the IC from excessive
voltage that can occur during system startup. The minimum
operating voltage for the UCX844 is 11 V and 8.2 V for the
UCX845.
Output
These devices contain a single totem pole output stage
that was specifically designed for direct drive of power
MOSFETs. It is capable of up to ± 1.0 A peak drive current
and has a typical rise and fall time of 50 ns with a 1.0 nF load.
Additional internal circuitry has been added to keep the
Output in a sinking mode whenever and undervoltage lockout
is active. This characteristic eliminates the need for an
external pull–down resistor.
The SO–14 surface mount package provides separate
pins for VC (output supply) and Power Ground. Proper
implementation will significantly reduce the level of switching
transient noise imposed on the control circuitry. This
becomes particularly useful when reducing the Ipk(max) clamp
level. The separate VC supply input allows the designer
added flexibility in tailoring the drive voltage independent of
VCC. A zener clamp is typically connected to this input when
driving power MOSFETs in systems where VCC is greater the
20 V. Figure 22 shows proper power and control ground
connections in a current sensing power MOSFET
application.
Reference
The 5.0 V bandgap reference is trimmed to ± 1.0%
tolerance at TJ = 25°C on the UC284X, and ± 2.0% on the
UC384X. Its primary purpose is to supply charging current to
the oscillator timing capacitor. The reference has short circuit
protection and is capable of providing in excess of 20 mA for
powering additional control system circuitry.
Design Considerations
Do not attempt to construct the converter on
wire–wrap or plug–in prototype boards. High frequency
circuit layout techniques are imperative to prevent pulsewidth
jitter. This is usually caused by excessive noise pick–up
imposed on the Current Sense or Voltage Feedback inputs.
Noise immunity can be improved by lowering circuit
impedances at these points. The printed circuit layout should
contain a ground plane with low–current signal and
high–current switch and output grounds returning on
separate paths back to the input filter capacitor. Ceramic
bypass capacitors (0.1 µF) connected directly to VCC, VC,
and Vref may be required depending upon circuit layout. This
provides a low impedance path for filtering the high frequency
noise. All high current loops should be kept as short as
possible using heavy copper runs to minimize radiated EMI.
The Error Amp compensation circuitry and the converter
output voltage divider should be located close to the IC and
as far as possible from the power switch and other noise
generating components.
