Description
The KA3842B/KA3843B/KA3844B/KA3845B are fixed
frequency current-mode PWM co ntroller. They are
specially designed for Off - Line and DC-to- DC converter
applications with minimum external components. These
integrated circuits feature a trimmed oscillator for precise
duty cycle control, a temperature compensated reference,
high gain error amplifier, current sensing comparator and a
high current totempole output for driving a power MOSFET.
The KA3842B and KA3844B have UVLO thresholds of
16V (o n) and 10V (off). The KA3843 B and KA38 45B are
8.5V (on) and 7.9V (off). The KA3842B and KA3843B can
operate within 100% duty cycle. The KA3844B and
KA3845B can operate with 50% duty cycle.

Figure 1. Open Loop Test Ci rcuit
High peak currents associated with capacitive loads necessitate careful grounding techniques Timing and bypass capacitors
should be connected clos e to pin 5 in a single point ground. T he tr ansistor and 5K potentiometer are us ed to sample the
oscillator waveform and apply an adjustable ramp to pin 3.

Figure 5. Oscillator Waveforms and Maximum Duty Cycle
Oscillator timing capacitor, CT, is charged by VREF through RT and discharged by an internal current source. During the dis-
charge time, the internal clock signal blanks the output to the low state. Selection of RT and CT therefore determines both
oscillator frequency and maximum duty cycle. Charge and discharge times are determined by the formulas:
tc = 0.55 RT CT
Frequency, then, is: f=(tc + td)-1

Shutdown of the KA3842B can be accomplished by two methods; either raise pin 3 above 1V or pull pin 1 below a voltage
two diod e drops a bove gr ound. E ithe r method caus es the output of the PWM compar ator to be high (ref er to bl ock di agra m).
The PWM latch is reset dominant so that the output will remain low until the next clock cycle after the shutdown condition at
pins 1 and/or 3 is removed. In one example, an externally latched shutdown may be accomplished by adding an SOR which
will be reset by cycling V CC below th e lower UVLO threshold. At this p oint the reference turns of f, allowing the SCR to reset.
Figure 9. Slope Compensation
A fraction of the oscillator ramp can be resistively summed with the current sense signal to provide slope compensation for
converters requiring duty cycles over 50%. Note that capacitor, C T, forms a filter with R2 to suppress the leading edge switch
spikes.
