UCC3809PW-2G4 belongs to the category of integrated circuits (ICs) specifically designed for power management applications.
This product is commonly used in various power supply systems, including switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), battery chargers, and DC-DC converters.
UCC3809PW-2G4 is available in a small-sized package known as TSSOP-8 (Thin Shrink Small Outline Package). This package provides good thermal dissipation and ease of handling during assembly.
The essence of UCC3809PW-2G4 lies in its ability to efficiently regulate and control power flow in electronic systems, ensuring reliable and stable operation.
UCC3809PW-2G4 is typically sold in reels containing 2500 units. However, it is also available in smaller quantities for prototyping purposes.
The UCC3809PW-2G4 IC has the following pin configuration:
The error amplifier compares the feedback voltage (FB) with the reference voltage (VREF) to generate an error signal, which is used to regulate the output voltage.
The current sense input (CS) monitors the load current, allowing the IC to adjust the switching frequency and duty cycle accordingly. This feature helps maintain stable output voltage under varying load conditions.
The timing resistor (RT) and timing capacitor (CT) connected to the RT/CT pin determine the switching frequency of the IC. By adjusting these components, the user can optimize the performance of the power supply system.
UCC3809PW-2G4 incorporates various protection features such as overvoltage protection, undervoltage lockout, and thermal shutdown. These mechanisms safeguard the IC and the connected circuitry from potential damage.
UCC3809PW-2G4 operates based on the principles of pulse width modulation (PWM). It regulates the output voltage by controlling the duty cycle of the switching signal. The error amplifier compares the feedback voltage with the reference voltage, generating an error signal that adjusts the duty cycle to maintain the desired output voltage.
