UCx846/7 Current Mode PWM Controller
1 Features
3 Description
•
•
•
The UC1846/7 family of control devices provides all
of the necessary features to implement fixedfrequency, current-mode control schemes while
maintaining a minimum external parts count. The
superior performance of this technique can be
measured in improved line regulation, enhanced load
response characteristics, and a simpler, easier-todesign control loop. Topological advantages include
inherent pulse-by-pulse current limiting capability,
automatic symmetry correction for push-pull
converters, and the ability to parallel power modules
while maintaining equal current sharing.

7 Detailed Description
7.1 Overview
The UCx846/7 family of control devices provides the necessary features to implement off-line or DC-to-DC fixedfrequency, current-mode control schemes with a minimal external parts count. Internally implemented circuits
include under-voltage lockout featuring start-up current less than 1 mA, a precision reference trimmed for
accuracy at the error amplifier input, logic to insure latched operation, a PWM comparator which also provides
current limit control, and a totem pole output stage designed to source or sink high-peak current. The output
stage, suitable for driving either N-Channel MOSFETs or bipolar transistor switches, is low in the off state.

7.3 Feature Description
7.3.1 Current Sense Amplifier
The current sense amplifier may be used in a variety of ways to sense peak switch current for comparison with
an error voltage. Referring to Functional Block Diagram, maximum swing on the inverting input of the PWM
comparator is limited to approximately 3.5 V by the internal regulated supply. Accordingly, for a fixed gain of 3,
maximum differential voltages must be kept below 1.2 V at the current sense inputs.

Feature Description (continued)
A small RC filter may be required in some applications to reduce switch transients.
Differential input allows remote, noise free sensing.
Figure 3. Current Sense Amplifier Connection
7.3.2 Oscillator
By implementing the oscillator using all NPN transistors, the UCx846/7 achieves excellent temperature stability
and waveform clarity at frequencies in excess of 1 MHz.
Referring to Figure 4, an external resistor RT is used to generate a constant current into a capacitor CT to
produce a linear sawtooth waveform. Oscillator frequency may be approximated by selecting RT and CT such
that:

7.4 Device Functional Modes
7.4.1 Current Limit
One of the most attractive features of a current-mode converter is the ability to limit peak-switch currents on a
pulse-by-pulse basis by simply limiting the error voltage to a maximum value.
7.4.2 Shutdown
The shutdown circuit was designed to provide a fast acting general purpose shutdown port for use in
implementing both protection circuitry and remote shutdown functions. The circuit may be divided into an input
section consisting of a comparator with a 350-mV temperature compensated offset, and an output section
consisting of a three transistor latch. Shutdown is accomplished by applying a signal greater than 350 mV to pin
16, causing the output latch to fire, and setting the PWM latch to provide an immediate signal to the outputs.

8 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
8.1 Application Information
The UCx846/7 family of control devices provides all of the necessary features to implement fixed frequency,
current mode control schemes while maintaining a minimum external parts count. The superior performance of
this technique can be measured in improved line regulation, enhanced load response characteristics, and a
simpler, easier to design control loop. Topological advantages include inherent pulse-by-pulse current limiting
capability, automatic symmetry correction for push-pull converters. Protection circuitry includes undervoltage
lockout and programmable current limit in addition to soft-start capability. A shutdown function is also available
which initiates either a complete shutdown with automatic restart or latch the supply off.

8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
This section details the design procedure based on the design requirements.
8.2.2.1 Design Switching Frequency
Output deadtime is determined by the external capacitor, CT, according to the formula:

« ID
«¬
RT (k:) »¼
where
•
ID = Oscillator discharge current at 25°C; typically is 7.5.

For large values of RT: τd (μs ) ≈145CT (μF).
Oscillator frequency is approximated by the formula:

9 Power Supply Recommendations
The VIN power terminal for the device requires the placement of low esr noise-decoupling capacitance as directly
as possible from the VIN terminal to the GND terminal. Ceramic capacitors with stable dielectric characteristics
over temperature are recommended, such as X7R or better.
The VC power terminal for the device requires the placement of resistance as directly as possible from the VC
terminal to the VIN terminal.

10 Layout
10.1 Layout Guidelines
•
•
•
•
Place a low ESR and ESL decoupling capacitor CREF in the 1-µF to 2.2-µF range, preferably ceramic, from
VREF pin to GND.
The EA+ is a non-inverting input, the EA– is an inverting input and the COMP is the output of the error
amplifier. Place resistor and capacitor series network between EA+ pin and COMP pin, and reduce the trace
of resistor and capacitor series network as much as possible.
Place a low ESR and ESL capacitor CT, preferably ceramic, from CT pin to GND, and place CT close to
UCx846/7 as much as possible.
Place a resistor RT from RT pin to GND, and place RT close to UCx846/7 as much as possible.

The marketing status values are defined as follows:
ACTIVE: Product device recommended for new designs.
LIFEBUY: TI has announced that the device will be discontinued, and a lifetime-buy period is in effect.
NRND: Not recommended for new designs. Device is in production to support existing customers, but TI does not recommend using this part in a new design.

RoHS: TI defines "RoHS" to mean semiconductor products that are compliant with the current EU RoHS requirements for all 10 RoHS substances, including the requirement that RoHS substance
do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, "RoHS" products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes. TI may
reference these types of products as "Pb-Free".
RoHS Exempt: TI defines "RoHS Exempt" to mean products that contain lead but are compliant with EU RoHS pursuant to a specific EU RoHS exemption.
Green: TI defines "Green" to mean the content of Chlorine (Cl) and Bromine (Br) based flame retardants meet JS709B low halogen requirements of
