MOSFETs - Single

Current-mode PWMSOP-8Under-50% duty cycleOffline SMPSDC-DC controller

XL3844 is a current-mode PWM controller in SOP-8 for offline and DC-DC power supplies requiring a below-50% duty-cycle controller.

Best for

  • Offline switch-mode power supplies
  • DC-DC converters with current-mode control
  • Designs requiring a maximum duty cycle below 50%

Avoid if

  • Applications requiring duty cycle above 50%
  • Designs unable to provide sufficient VCC startup voltage
  • Applications requiring verified compliance or lifecycle documentation

Check before use

  • Validate RT and CT for the target switching frequency
  • Set the current-sense resistor for the required peak-current limit
  • Review compensation and slope-compensation requirements
  • Confirm sourcing and compliance status with the supplier
