Working Principles

The UC2845ADM is a voltage mode PWM controller that regulates the output voltage of a power supply circuit. It operates by comparing the feedback voltage (VFB) with an internal reference voltage to generate an error signal. This error signal is then amplified and used to control the duty cycle of the power switch connected to the OUT pin. By adjusting the duty cycle, the output voltage can be regulated within a desired range. The UC2845ADM also incorporates various protection features such as overcurrent protection and under-voltage lockout to ensure safe and reliable operation.
