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:

Equation 2. UC1846 UC1847 UC2846 UC2847 UC3846 UC3847 qu2_lus352.gif

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:
