About this manual

The TL284xB and TL384xB series are high‑performance current‑mode PWM controller ICs designed for off‑line or DC‑to‑DC fixed‑frequency control schemes. They include an undervoltage‑lockout, precision reference, latchable PWM, and a high‑current totem‑pole output suitable for driving N‑channel MOSFETs.

The document lists ordering part numbers, package drawings, recommended operating conditions, absolute maximum ratings, and detailed electrical characteristics such as start‑up current, oscillator discharge current, UVLO thresholds, duty‑cycle limits, and temperature ranges.
