Product Summary

  • The UC3846N is a control IC. The UC3846N 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 of the UC3846N include inherent pulse-by-pulse current limiting capability, automatic symmetry correction for push-pull converters, and the ability to parallelpower modules while maintaining equal current sharing.
