Device identity and active production status
The UC1826J is a switching controller, described as a SWITCHING CONTROLLER in the component listing.
Package and compliance
Supplied in Bulk packaging — the form factor is loose units, not tape-and-reel, which suits low-volume builds, prototype runs, or repair stock where reeled quantities are unnecessary. RoHS compliance is marked as non-compliant, so the part contains lead or other restricted substances above the exemption thresholds. This matters for builds destined for EU markets or any RoHS-mandated BOM line; a waiver or exemption may be required.
