The CS3844/45 provides all the neces-
sary features to implement off-line
fixed frequency current-mode control
with a minimum number of external
components.
The CS3844 family incorporates a new
precision temperature-controlled oscil-
lator to minimize variations in fre-
quency. An internal toggle flip-flop,
which blanks the output every other
clock cycle, limits the duty-cycle range
to less than 50%. An undervoltage
lockout ensures that VREF is stabilized
before the output stage is enabled. In
the CS2844/CS3844 turn on occurs at
16V and turn off at 10V. In the
CS2845/CS3845 turn on is at 8.4V and
turn off at 7.6V.
Other features include low start-up
current, pulse-by-pulse current limit-
ing, and a high-current totem pole out-
put for driving capacitive loads, such
as gate of a power MOSFET. The out-
put is low in the off state, consistent
with N-channel devices.

Undervoltage Lockout
During Undervoltage Lockout (Figure 1), the output driv-
er is biased to sink minor amounts of current. The output
should be shunted to ground with a resistor to prevent
activating the power switch with extraneous leakage cur-
rents.
PWM Waveform
To generate the PWM waveform, the control voltage from
the error amplifier is compared to a current sense signal
which represents the peak output inductor current (Figure
2). An increase in VCC causes the inductor current slope to
increase, thus reducing the duty cycle. This is an inherent
feed-forward characteristic of current mode control, since
the control voltage does not have to change during
changes of input supply voltage.
When the power supply sees a sudden large output cur-
rent increase, the control voltage will increase allowing
the duty cycle to momentarily increase. Since the duty
cycle tends to exceed the maximum allowed to prevent
transformer saturation in some power supplies, the inter-
nal oscillator waveform provides the maximum duty cycle
clamp as programmed by the selection of OSC compo-
nents.

Setting the Oscillator
The times Tcand Tdcan be determined as follows:
Grounding
High peak currents associated with capacitive loads neces-
sitate careful grounding techniques. Timing and bypass
capacitors should be connected close to Gnd in a single
point ground.
The transistor and 5kpotentiometer are used to sample
the oscillator waveform and apply an adjustable ramp to
Sense.
