About this manual

The UC1525A/27A, UC2525A/27A and UC3525A/27A are regulating pulse width modulator integrated circuits intended for switching power supply designs. The document lists features such as 8 to 35V operation, a 5.1V reference trimmed to ±1%, a 100Hz to 500kHz oscillator range, adjustable deadtime control, internal soft-start, pulse-by-pulse shutdown, and dual source/sink output drivers.

The datasheet provides absolute maximum ratings, recommended operating conditions, connection diagrams and pin functions, and electrical characteristics for the reference, oscillator, error amplifier, PWM comparator, shutdown and output driver sections. It also includes principles of operation, typical characteristics, shutdown options, oscillator and output circuit diagrams, and a lab test fixture.

Frequently asked questions

What input voltage range is recommended for the UC1525A/27A, UC2525A/27A and UC3525A/27A?

The recommended input voltage (+VIN) range is +8 V to +35 V.

How is the reference output voltage specified at 25°C for the UC1525A/UC2525A?

At TJ = 25°C, the UC1525A/UC2525A reference output is specified as 5.05 V min, 5.10 V typ and 5.15 V max.

What happens when Pin 10 is activated for shutdown?

It immediately sets the PWM latch for fast turn-off and starts a 150µA current sink to discharge the external soft-start capacitor.

Should Pin 10 be left floating?

No; the text states Pin 10 should not be left floating because noise pickup could interrupt normal operation.
