Description
The AS3842 family of control ICs provide pin-for-pin replacement of the
industry standard UC3842 series of devices. The devices are
redesigned to provide significantly improved tolerances in power sup-
ply manufacturing. The 2.5 V reference has been trimmed to 1.0%
tolerance. The oscillator discharge current is trimmed to provide guar-
anteed duty cycle clamping rather than specified discharge current.
The circuit is more completely specified to guarantee all parameters
impacting power supply manufacturing tolerances.
In addition, the oscillator and flip-flop sections have been enhanced to
provide additional performance. The RT/CT pin now doubles as a syn-
chronization input that can be easily driven from open collector/open
drain logic outputs. This sync input is a high impedance input and can
easily be used for externally clocked systems. The new flip-flop topol-
ogy allows the duty cycle on the AS3844/5 to be guaranteed between
49 and 50%. The AS3843/5 requires less than 0.5 mA of start-up cur-
rent over the full temperature range.
