UC3842PWM controllerCurrent modeOffline SMPSDC-DC converter8-pin

UC3842AN-TD is an 8-pin current-mode PWM controller for offline and DC-DC switch-mode power designs. It integrates a reference, control amplifier, current limiting, UVLO and a MOSFET driver.

Best for

  • Offline switch-mode power supplies
  • Current-mode DC-DC converters
  • Power MOSFET drive stages

Avoid if

  • A confirmed package variant is required but the orderable suffix has not been verified
  • Operation outside the stated 0 °C to 70 °C ambient range is required

Check before use

  • Confirm package and PCB footprint
  • Size the current-sense resistor for the required current limit
  • Check startup and auxiliary-bias supply behavior against UVLO thresholds
