Component

PWM controllercurrent-mode controlDIP8off-line powerDC-to-DC

UC3843N-TUDI is a DIP8 current-mode PWM controller for off-line and DC-to-DC power converters, with current limiting, UVLO, a 5 V reference, and a totem-pole output.

Best for

  • Current-mode control in off-line power supplies
  • DC-to-DC converter control
  • Driving a power MOSFET from a PWM output

Avoid if

  • The design requires more than 50% maximum duty cycle
  • The application needs a surface-mount package
  • The required electrical or compliance data is not verified

Check before use

  • Confirm DIP8 assembly and pin mapping
  • Set RT and CT for the required oscillator frequency
  • Validate current-sense filtering and peak current
  • Check UVLO behavior during startup and brownout
