TEXAS INSTRUMENTS UCC28C40/UCC28C41/UCC28C42/UCC28C43/UCC28C44/UCC28C45/UCC38C40/UCC38C41/UCC38C42/UCC38C43/UCC38C44/UCC38C45 handbook
The UCC28C4x and UCC38C4x families are high-performance current-mode PWM controllers designed as enhanced replacements for the UC384xA family. They offer pin-to-pin compatibility with the industry-standard UC384xA and UC384x families, featuring high-frequency operation up to 1 MHz with low startup and operating currents to minimize power consumption. The devices include a fast 35-ns cycle-by-cycle overcurrent limiting feature and a +1-A peak output current capability with improved rise and fall times for driving large external MOSFETs directly.
