Description and Introduction

Current Mode PWM Controller The UC1842 is a pulse width modulation (PWM) controller IC manufactured by Texas Instruments (formerly Unitrode). Below are the factual details about the UC1842:

### **Manufacturer:**  
- Texas Instruments (originally Unitrode)  

### **Key Specifications:**  
- **Topology:** Current-mode PWM controller  
- **Operating Voltage Range:** 8V to 30V  
- **Output Drive Current:** ±1A (peak)  
- **Switching Frequency:** Up to 500 kHz  
- **Duty Cycle Range:** 0% to 100%  
- **Error Amplifier Bandwidth:** 1 MHz  
- **Soft-Start Capability:** Yes  
- **Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO):** Yes (typically 7V turn-on, 6V turn-off)  
- **Operating Temperature Range:** -40°C to +85°C  
- **Package Options:** 8-Pin DIP, SOIC  

### **Descriptions and Features:**  
1. **Current-Mode Control:** Provides cycle-by-cycle current limiting for improved transient response.  
2. **Precision Reference:** Internal 5.1V ±1% bandgap voltage reference.  
3. **Error Amplifier:** High-gain op-amp for feedback loop control.  
4. **PWM Latch:** Ensures single pulse per period for noise immunity.  
5. **Output Stage:** Totem-pole output for driving power MOSFETs or bipolar transistors.  
6. **Soft-Start:** Reduces inrush current during startup.  
7. **Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO):** Ensures proper operation only when supply voltage is sufficient.  
8. **Low Startup Current:** Typically 0.5mA for efficient power-up.  

### **Applications:**  
- Switch-mode power supplies (SMPS)  
- DC-DC converters  
- Offline power supplies  
- Battery chargers  

The UC1842 is widely used in power supply designs due to its reliability and flexibility in current-mode control applications.
