UC3844 Switching Regulator controller

The UC3844 is 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%.
