Fixed-Frequency Current-Mode Controller IC UC3843AN

Description

The UC3843AN is a current-mode pulse-width modulation (PWM) controller optimized for switching power supply applications, including offline (AC-DC) and DC-DC converters. It integrates a precision reference, high-gain error amplifier, current sense comparator, PWM latch, and a high-current totem-pole output driver — enabling efficient control of external power switches (e.g., MOSFETs) in a variety of topologies such as buck, boost, fly back, and forward converters.
