The SG1844/45 family of control ICs
provides all the necessary features to
implement off-line fixed frequency,
current-mode switching power supplies
with a minimum number of external
components. Current-mode architecture
demonstrates improved line regulation,
improved load regulation, pulse-by-
pulse current limiting and inherent
protection of the power supply output
switch.
The bandgap reference is trimmed to
±1% over temperature. Oscillator
discharge current is trimmed to less than
±10%. The SG1844/45 has under-
voltage lockout, current-limiting circuitry

and start-up current of less than 1mA.
The totem-pole output is optimized to
drive the gate of a power MOSFET. The
output is low in the off state to provide
direct interface to an N-channel device.
Both operate up to a maximum duty
cycle range of zero to <50% due to an
internal toggle flip-flop which blanks the
output off every other clock cycle.
The SG1844/45 is specified for
operation over the full military ambient
temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.
The SG2844/45 is specified for the
industrial range of -25°C to 85°C, and
the SG3844/45 is designed for the
commercial range of 0°C to 70°C.

TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUITS
FIGURE 17. — ISOLATED MOSFET DRIVEFIGURE 16. — BIPOLAR TRANSISTOR DRIVE
Current transformers can be used where isolation is required
between PWM and Primary ground. A drive transformer is then
necessary to interface the PWM output with the MOSFET.
The 1844/45 output stage can provide negative base current to
remove base charge of power transistor (Q1) for faster turn off. This
is accomplished by adding a capacitor (C1) in parallel with a resistor
(R1). The resistor (R1) is to limit the base current during turn on.
Pin numbers referenced are for 8-pin package and pin numbers in parenthesis are for 14-pin package.
FIGURE 14. — CURRENT SENSE SPIKE SUPPRESSION FIGURE 15. — MOSFET PARASITIC OSCILLATIONS
A resistor (R1) in series with the MOSFET gate reduce overshoot and
ringing caused by the MOSFET input capacitance and any inductance
in series with the gate drive. (Note: It is very important to have a
low inductance ground path to insure correct operation of the I.C.
This can be done by making the ground paths as short and as wide
as possible.)
The RC low-pass filter will eliminate the leading edge current spike
caused by parasitics of Power MOSFET.

Precision duty cycle limiting for a duty cycle of <50%, as well as
synchronizing several 1844/45's is possible with the above circuitry.
Softstart and adjustable peak current can be done with the external
circuitry shown above.

The oscillator is programmed by the values selected for the timing
components RT and CT. Refer to application information for
calculation of the component values.
Error amplifier is capable of sourcing and sinking current up to 0.5mA.
