About this manual

The SG6846A is a highly integrated PWM controller designed for switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) with surge-current output. It incorporates a two-level over-current protection (OCP) function and cycle-by-cycle current limiting to ensure safe operation. The device features a peak-current mode of operation with frequency hopping to reduce EMI emissions and a built-in soft-start function to minimize stress on the power MOSFET during startup.
