Please note: As part of the Fairchild Semiconductor integration, some of the Fairchild orderable part numbers
will need to change in order to meet ON Semiconductor’s system requirements. Since the ON Semiconductor
product management systems do not have the ability to manage part nomenclature that utilizes an underscore
(_), the underscore (_) in the Fairchild part numbers will be changed to a dash (-). This document may contain
device numbers with an underscore (_). Please check the ON Semiconductor website to verify the updated
device numbers. The most current and up-to-date ordering information can be found at www.onsemi.com. Please
email any questions regarding the system integration to Fairchild_questions@onsemi.com.

applications with minimum external components. These
integrated circuits feature a trimmed oscillator for pr ecise
duty cycle control, a temperature compensated reference,
high gain error amplifier, current sensing comparator and a
high current totempole output for driving a power MOSFE T.
The KA3842B and KA3844B have UVLO thresholds of
16V (o n) and 10V (off). The KA3843 B and KA38 45B are

High peak currents associated with capacitive loads necessitate careful grounding techniques Timing and bypass capacitors
should be connected close to pin 5 in a single point ground . The tr ansist or and 5KΩ potentiometer are us ed to sample the

Figure 5. Oscillator Waveforms and Maximum Duty Cycle
Oscillator timing capacitor, CT, is charged by VREF through RT and discharged by an internal current source. During the dis-
charge time, the internal clock signal blanks the output to the low state. Selection of RT and CT therefore determines both
oscillator frequency and maximum duty cycle. Charge and discharge times are determined by the formulas:
tc = 0.55 RT CT
Frequency, then, is: f=(tc + td)-1

Shutdown of the KA3842B can be accomplished by two methods; either raise pin 3 above 1V or pull pin 1 below a voltage
two diod e drops a bove gr ound. E ithe r method caus es the output of the PWM compar ator to be high (ref er to bl ock di agra m).
The PWM latch is reset dominant so that the output will remain low until the next clock cycle after the shutdown condition at
pins 1 and/or 3 is removed. In one example , an externally latched shutdown may be accomplished by adding an SOR which
will be reset by cycling V CC below th e lower UVLO threshold. At this p oint the reference turns of f, allowing the SCR to reset.
Figure 9. Slope Compensation
A fraction of the oscillator ramp can be resistively summed with the current sense signal to provide slope compensation for
converters requiring duty cycles over 50%. Note that capacitor, C T, forms a filter with R2 to suppress the leading edge switch
spikes.
