The UC1842/3/4/5 family of control ICs provides the necessary features to im-plement off-line or DC to DC fixed frequency current mode control schemes with a minimal external parts count. Internally implemented circuits include un-der-voltage lockout featuring start up current less than 1mA, a precision refer-ence trimmed for accuracy at the error amp 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 out-put stage, suitable for driving N Channel MOSFET s, is low in the off state. Differences between members of this family are the under-voltage lockout thresholds and maximum duty cycle ranges. The UC1842 and UC1844 have UVLO thresholds of 16V (on) and 10V (off), ideally suited to off-line applica-tions. The corresponding thresholds for the UC1843 and UC1845 are 8.4V and 7.6V. The UC1842 and UC1843 can operate to duty cycles approaching 100%. A range of zero to 50% is obtained by the UC1844 and UC1845 by the addition of an internal toggle flip flop which blanks the output off every other
clock cycle. BLOCK DIAGRAM

ERROR AMP CONFIGURATION
Error Amp can Source or Sink up to 0.5mA
UNDER-VOLTAGE LOCKOUT
CURRENT SENSE CIRCUIT
OSCILLATOR SECTION
During under-voltage lock-out, the output driver is biased to sink minor amounts of current. Pin 6 should be shunted to ground with a bleeder resistor to prevent activating the power switch with extraneous leakage currents.
A small RC filter may be required to suppress switch transients .
Peak Current (I S ) is Determined By The Formula
I SMAX ≈
1.0V
R S
High peak currents associated with capacitive loads necessi-tate careful grounding techniques. Timing and bypass capaci-tors should be connected close to pin 5 in a single point ground. The transistor and 5k potentiometer are used to sam-ple the oscillator waveform and apply an adjustable ramp to pin 3.
Shutdown of the UC1842 can be accomplished by two meth-ods; either raise pin 3 above 1V or pull pin 1 below a voltage two diode drops above ground. Either method causes the out-put 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 pin 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 V CC below the lower UVLO threshold. At this point the reference turns off, allowing the SCR to reset.

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, C forms a filter with R2 to suppress the leading edge switch spikes.
