About this manual

The UC1826 family of average current mode controllers accurately accomplishes secondary side average current mode control. The secondary side output voltage is regulated by sensing the output voltage and differentially sensing the AC switching current. The sensed output voltage drives a voltage error amplifier, while the AC switching current, monitored by a current sense resistor, drives a high bandwidth, low offset current error amplifier.

The UC1826 features load share, oscillator synchronization, undervoltage lockout, and programmable output control. Multiple chip operation can be achieved by connecting up to ten UC1826 chips in parallel. With its tailored bandwidth, the UC1826 provides excellent noise immunity and is an ideal controller to achieve high power, secondary side average current mode control.
