Order this document by UC3844B/D The UC3844B, UC3845B 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 from 50% to 70%. These devices are available in an 8-pin dual-in-line and surface mount (SO-8) 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 UCX844B has UVLO thresholds of 16 V (on) and 10 V (off), ideally suited for off-line converters. The UCX845B is tailored for lower voltage applications having UVLO thresholds of 8.5 V (on) and 7.6 V (off). * Trimmed Oscillator for Precise Frequency Control * * * * * * * * * HIGH PERFORMANCE CURRENT MODE CONTROLLERS N SUFFIX PLASTIC PACKAGE CASE 626 8 1 D1 SUFFIX PLASTIC PACKAGE CASE 751 (SO-8) 8 1 D SUFFIX PLASTIC PACKAGE CASE 751A (SO-14) 14 1 Oscillator Frequency Guaranteed at 250 kHz Current Mode Operation to 500 kHz Output Switching Frequency PIN CONNECTIONS Output Deadtime Adjustable from 50% to 70% Automatic Feed Forward Compensation Latching PWM for Cycle-By-Cycle Current Limiting Compensation 1 Voltage Feedback 2 Current Sense 3 8 6 Vref VCC Output RT/CT 4 5 Gnd Internally Trimmed Reference with Undervoltage Lockout High Current Totem Pole Output (Top View) Undervoltage Lockout with Hysteresis Compensation 1 Low Startup and Operating Current NC 2 Voltage Feedback 3 NC 4 Current Sense 5 VCC 5.0V Reference 8(14) R R RT/CT Voltage Feedback Input 7(12) Device Latching PWM Output 6(10) Power Ground 5(8) 2(3) Error Amplifier Current Sense Input 3(5) 1(1) Gnd 5(9) Pin numbers in parenthesis are for the D suffix SO-14 package. 11 VC 10 Output 9 Gnd 8 Power Ground Operating Temperature Range Package UC384XBD SO-14 UC384XBD1 TA = 0 to + 70C UC384XBN UC284XBD UC284XBD1 SO-8 Plastic SO-14 TA = - 25 to + 85C SO-8 UC284XBN Plastic UC384XBVD SO-14 UC384XBVD1 TA = - 40 to +105C SO-8 UC384XBVN Plastic X indicates either a 4 or 5 to define specific device part numbers.

MOTOROLA ANALOG IC DEVICE DATA UC3844B, 45B UC2844B, 45B OPERATING DESCRIPTION The UC3844B, UC3845B 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 UCX844/5B 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. The oscillator thresholds are temperature compensated to within 6% at 50 kHz. Also, because of industry trends moving the UC384X into higher and higher frequency applications, the UC384XB is guaranteed to within 10% at 250 kHz. 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 non-inverting 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 A 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 provided 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 MOTOROLA ANALOG IC DEVICE DATA power supply is operating and the load is removed, or at the beginning of a soft-start interval (Figures 20, 21). The Error 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 0.5 mA = 8800 Current Sense Comparator and PWM Latch The UC3844B, UC3845B 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 (Pin 1). Thus the error signal controls the peak 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 to 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: Ipk = V(Pin 1) - 1.4 V 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). 7 UC3844B, 45B UC2844B, 45B Figure 15.

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 UCX844B, and 8.4 V/7.6 V for the UCX845B. The Vref comparator upper and lower thresholds are 3.6 V/3.4 V. The large hysteresis and low startup current of the UCX844B makes it ideally suited in off-line converter applications where efficient bootstrap startup techniques are required (Figure 29). The UCX845B 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 UCX844B is 11 V and 8.2 V for the UCX845B. 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 an 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 than 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 = 25C on the UC284XB, and 2.0% on the UC384XB. 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 pulse-width 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 F) 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.
