UC3844Current-mode PWMDIP-8Offline converterDC-DC controller50% duty cycle

UC3844AN-TUDI is a DIP-8 current-mode PWM controller for offline and DC-DC power converters. The UC3844 version is limited to a 50% maximum output duty cycle.

Best for

  • Offline switched-mode power supplies
  • DC-DC converters requiring current-mode control
  • Designs using a through-hole DIP-8 controller

Avoid if

  • The application requires duty cycle above 50 %
  • A confirmed RoHS, REACH, lifecycle, or qualification status is mandatory without further supplier evidence

Check before use

  • Confirm VCC reaches the UC3844 startup threshold.
  • Set peak current protection around the current-sense threshold.
  • Verify MOSFET gate-drive loading and PCB grounding layout.
