The UC2832 and UC3833 series of precision linear regulators include all the
control functions required in the design of very low dropout linear regulators.
Additionally, they feature an innovative duty-ratio current limiting technique
which provides peak load capability while limiting the average power dissipation of the external pass transistor during fault conditions. When the load current reaches an accurately programmed threshold, a gated-astable timer is
enabled, which switches the regulator’s pass device off and on at an externally
programmable duty-ratio. During the on-time of the pass element, the output
current is limited to a value slightly higher than the trip threshold of the duty-ratio timer. The constant-current-limit is programmable on the UCx832 to allow
higher peak current during the on-time of the pass device. With duty-ratio control, high initial load demands and short circuit protection may both be accommodated without extra heat sinking or foldback current limiting. Additionally, if
the timer pin is grounded, the duty-ratio timer is disabled, and the IC operates
in constant-voltage/constant-current regulating mode.
Additional Features of the UC2832
series:
•
Adjustable Current Limit to
Current Sense Ratio
•
Separate +VIN terminal
•
Programmable Driver Current
Limit
•
Access to VREF and E/A(+)
•
Logic-Level Disable Input
These IC’s include a 2 Volt (±1%) reference, error amplifier, UVLO, and a high
current driver that has both source and sink outputs, allowing the use of either
NPN or PNP external pass transistors. Safe operation is assured by the inclusion of under-voltage lockout (UVLO) and thermal shutdown.
The UC3833 family includes the basic functions of this design in a low-cost, 8pin mini-dip package, while the UC2832 series provides added versatility with
the availability of 14 pins. Packaging options include plastic (N suffix), or ceramic (J suffix). Specified operating temperature ranges are: commercial (0°C
to 70°C), order UC3832/3 (N or J); and industrial (–40°C to 85°C), order
UC2832/3 (N or J). Surface mount packaging is also available.

Note 3: On the UCx833 this voltage is defined as the regulating level at the error amplifier inverting input, with the error amplifier
driving VSOURCE to 2 V.
Note 4: These parameters are first-order supply-independent, however both may vary with supply for +VIN less than about 4 V. This
supply variation will cause a slight change in the timer period and duty cycle, although a high off-time/on-time ratio will be maintained.
Note 5: With recommended RT value of 200k, TOFF ≈ RT CT * ln(Vu/Vl) ±10%.
Note 6: The internal current limiting voltage has a temperature dependence of approximately -2.0 mV/°C, or -2800 ppm/°C. The internal 2.4 Ω sense resistor has a temperature dependance of approximately +1500 ppm/°C.
