Product details

The UC3845ADWTR: The controller supports boost, buck, and step-up/step-down configurations, and its transistor-driver output drives an external MOSFET through a gate-drive resistor — no integrated power stage.

Switching frequency and supply rails

The oscillator runs up to 500 kHz. The supply range is 7.6 V to 30 V.

Texas Instruments has discontinued this specific tape-and-reel variant.

Frequently asked questions

Can UC3845ADWTR be used in a boost or flyback converter?

Yes. The UC3845ADWTR supports boost, buck, flyback, and forward topologies. The 48% maximum duty cycle is well-suited for flyback and forward converters where the transformer reset limits the on-time. For boost converters, the duty cycle ceiling may limit the step-up ratio — check the required duty cycle against the 48% max before committing.
