DESCRIPTION
The UCC38083/4/5/6 is a family of BiCMOS pulse
widthmodulation (PWM) controllers for dc-to-dc
or off-linefixed-frequency current-mode switching
powersupplies. The dual output stages are configured
for thepush-pull topology. Both outputs switch at half
theoscillator frequency using a toggle flip-flop.
The deadtime between the two outputs is typically 110 ns,
limitingeach output’s duty cycle to less than 50%.
The new UCC3808x family is based on the UCC3808Aarchitecture.
The major differences include the additionof a programmable
slope compensation ramp to the CSsignal and the removal of
the error amplifier. The currentflowing out of the ISET pin
through an external resistoris monitored internally to set
the magnitude of the slopeV OUTcompensation function.
This device also includes aninternal discharge transistor
from the CS pin to ground,which is activated at each clock
cycle after the pulse isterminated. This discharges any filter
capacitance onthe CS pin during each cycle and helps minimize
filtercapacitor values and current sense delay.
The UCC38083 and the UCC38084 devices have atypical soft-start
interval time of 3.5 ms while theUCC38085 and the UCC38086 has
less than 100μsforapplications where internal soft-start is not desired.
The UCC38083 and the UCC38085 devices have theturn-on/off thresholds
of 12.5 V / 8.3 V, while theUCC38084 and the UCC38086 has the
turn-on/offthresholds of 4.3 V / 4.1 V. Each device is offered
in 8-pinTSSOP (PW), 8-pin SOIC (D) and 8-pin PDIP (P)packages
