UC3845AM Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • The recommended operating voltage range for UC3845AM is 12V to 28V, with a typical value of 15V. However, it can operate up to 30V with some performance degradation.

  • The values of RT and CT depend on the desired switching frequency. A higher switching frequency requires a smaller CT and a larger RT. A good starting point is to use RT = 10kΩ and CT = 3.3nF for a 50kHz switching frequency. Adjust these values based on your specific application requirements.

  • The UC3845AM can drive up to 1.5A of output current, making it suitable for most switching power supply applications. However, the actual output current capability may be limited by the external components and the PCB layout.

  • To ensure stable and reliable operation, make sure to decouple the VCC pin with a 10uF capacitor, use a low-ESR output capacitor, and provide a good thermal path for the IC. Additionally, follow proper PCB layout guidelines and use a shielded transformer to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).

  • While the UC3845AM is primarily designed for switching frequencies up to 100kHz, it can be used in high-frequency applications up to 500kHz with some performance degradation. However, it's essential to carefully evaluate the IC's performance and ensure that it meets your specific application requirements.
