UNITRODE UCC1580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC2580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC3580-1/-2/-3/-4 handbook(2)
The UCC3580 family of PWM controllers is designed to implement active clamp/reset and synchronous rectifier switching converter topologies. The design includes an auxiliary switch driver that complements the main power switch with a programmable deadtime or delay between each transition. This approach allows operation of single-ended converters beyond 50% duty cycle while reducing voltage stresses on the switches and recovering energy stored in parasitic elements.

Questions answered in these manuals
What is the function of the DELAY pin?
A resistor from DELAY to GND programs the nonoverlap delay between OUT1 and OUT2.
From: UNITRODE UCC1580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC2580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC3580-1/-2/-3/-4 handbook(2)
How is the switching frequency programmed?
The oscillator is programmed with two resistors and a capacitor to set switching frequency and maximum duty cycle.
From: UNITRODE UCC1580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC2580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC3580-1/-2/-3/-4 handbook(2)
What is the startup current of the UCC1580?
The chip requires a low startup current of only 160 µA when VDD is under the UVLO threshold.
From: UNITRODE UCC1580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC2580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC3580-1/-2/-3/-4 handbook(1)
How does the chip stop operation?
When the SHTDWN comparator input drops below its 0.5V threshold, OUT1 goes low and OUT2 continues to oscillate with guaranteed off time.
From: UNITRODE UCC1580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC2580-1/-2/-3/-4 UCC3580-1/-2/-3/-4 handbook(1)
What is the startup current of the UCC1580 family?
The startup current is 100 µA.
