UC3842 Figure 1. Open Loop Test Circuit 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 transistor and 5k potentiometer are used to sample the oscillator waveform and apply an adjustable ramp to pin 3. 4 UC3842/UC3843/UC3844/UC3845 UC3842/44 UC3843/45 Figure 2. Under Voltage Lockout During Under-Voltage Lock-Out, the output driver is biased to a high impedance state. Pin 6 should be shunted to ground with a bleeder resistor to prevent activating the power switch with output leakage current. Figure 3. Error Amp Configuration Figure 4. Current Sense Circuit Peak current (IS) is determined by the formula: 1.0V I S ( MAX ) = -----------RS A small RC filter may be required to suppress switch transients. 5 UC3842/UC3843/UC3844/UC3845 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 discharge 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 0.0063RT - 2.7 t D = R T C T I n ---------------------------------------- 0.0063R T - 4 Frequency, then, is: f=(tc + td)-1 1.8 ForRT > 5K ,f = --------------RT CT Figure 6. Oscillator Dead Time & Frequency Figure 7. Timing Resistance vs Frequency (Deadtime vs CT RT > 5k) Figure 8. Shutdown Techniques 6 UC3842/UC3843/UC3844/UC3845 Shutdown of the UC3842 can be accomplished by two methods; either raise pin 3 above 1V or pull pin 1 below a voltage two diode drops above ground. Either method causes the output of the PWM comparator to be high (refer to block diagram). 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 SCR which will be reset by cycling VCC below the lower UVLO threshold. At this point the reference turns off, allowing the SCR to reset. UC3842/UC3843 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, CT, forms a filter with R2 to suppress the leading edge switch spikes. Temperature (C) Figure 10. Temperature Drift (Vref) Temperature (C) Figure 11.
