Instructions for UC3845AD:

  1. Supply Voltage (Vcc):

    • Connect the Vcc pin to a power supply between 15V and 30V.
    • Ensure the supply is stable and within the specified range to avoid damage or erratic behavior.
  2. Start-Up Current (Istrt):

    • The IC requires a minimum of 1.2mA to start the oscillator. Ensure the power supply can provide this current.
  3. Operating Current (Icc):

    • The typical operating current is 3.5mA at Vcc = 30V. Design the power supply to handle this current.
  4. Error Amplifier:

    • Connect the inverting and non-inverting inputs of the error amplifier to the appropriate feedback and reference voltages.
    • Use a compensation network (typically RC) to stabilize the loop and ensure proper operation.
  5. Soft-Start:

    • Connect a capacitor (Css) between the soft-start pin and ground to control the startup time and reduce inrush current.
  6. Frequency Set:

    • Connect a resistor (Rfset) between the frequency set pin and ground to set the desired switching frequency.
  7. Overcurrent Protection:

    • Connect the overcurrent protection (OCP) pin to a sense resistor that monitors the current through the power switch.
    • The IC will shut down if the current exceeds the threshold (1.0A).
  8. Thermal Shutdown:

    • The IC will automatically shut down if the temperature exceeds 150°C to prevent damage.
    • Ensure proper heat sinking and ventilation to keep the temperature within safe limits.
  9. Operating Temperature:

    • The IC is designed to operate between -40°C and 125°C. Ensure the ambient temperature is within this range.
  10. Layout Considerations:

    • Use short, wide traces for high-current paths to minimize inductance and resistance.
    • Place decoupling capacitors close to the Vcc and ground pins to filter out noise.
  11. Testing and Debugging:

    • Monitor the output waveform and adjust the compensation network as needed to achieve stable operation.
    • Use an oscilloscope to verify the switching frequency and duty cycle.

By following these instructions, you can ensure reliable and efficient operation of the UC3845AD in your power supply design.
