Product details
Overview
E-UC2845BD1013TR from STMicroelectronics is a high-performance current-mode PWM controller IC designed for fixed-frequency DC-DC and off-line power supplies. It features 250 kHz guaranteed oscillator frequency, 47–50% maximum duty cycle (due to internal toggle flip-flop), and under-voltage lockout thresholds of 8.4 V (turn-on) and 7.6 V (turn-off), optimized for low-input-voltage applications such as telecom DC-DC converters and adapter power stages.
For engineers reviewing the E-UC2845BD1013TR datasheet, E-UC2845BD1013TR pinout, E-UC2845BD1013TR application, or E-UC2845BD1013TR equivalent, key selection criteria include UVLO hysteresis, current-sense gain (3.0 V/V), totem-pole output drive capability (±1 A), and SO8 package compatibility with standard PCB layouts for isolated flyback and forward converters.
Technical Context
The UC2845B implements current-mode control using a single-ended PWM architecture with cycle-by-cycle current limiting via an internal latch and comparator. Its oscillator uses RT/CT programming with ±1% frequency tolerance at 25°C and supports operation up to 500 kHz when externally configured.
It integrates a trimmed 5.0 V reference (±1% over temperature), error amplifier with 90 dB open-loop gain and 1 MHz unity-gain bandwidth, and a high-current totem-pole output stage capable of sourcing/sinking 1 A peak - enabling direct gate drive of N-channel MOSFETs without external buffers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Oscillator Frequency | 250 kHz guaranteed at 25°C; enables stable switching in compact 30–50 W SMPS designs |
| Max Duty Cycle | 47–50%; enforced by internal toggle flip-flop - prevents subharmonic oscillation in continuous conduction mode |
| UVLO Thresholds | 8.4 V turn-on / 7.6 V turn-off; narrow hysteresis (0.8 V) suits low-voltage DC inputs like 12 V telecom rails |
| Current Sense Gain | 3.0 V/V (±5%); converts sense resistor voltage to precise 1 V trip point for accurate peak-current limiting |
| Output Drive | ±1 A peak sink/source; directly drives MOSFET gates with <150 ns rise/fall times into 1 nF load |
| Reference Voltage | 5.00 V ±1% at 25°C; powers RT/CT timing network and provides stable bias for compensation networks |
| Start-up Current | <0.5 mA at 6.5 V; minimizes auxiliary winding losses in flyback startup circuits |
Pinout & Package
Package: SO8 (Small Outline Integrated Circuit, 150 mil width), RoHS-compliant, surface-mountable with standard reflow profile.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - COMP | Error amplifier output | Provides access to EA output for Type II/III compensation network placement adjacent to IC |
| 2 - VFB | Inverting input of error amplifier | Connects to feedback divider from output rail; sets regulation accuracy and transient response |
| 3 - ISENSE | Current sense input | Accepts voltage from primary-side sense resistor; triggers PWM latch at 1 V threshold for cycle-by-cycle protection |
| 4 - RT/CT | Oscillator timing node | RT to VREF and CT to GND set frequency and max duty cycle; supports 50–500 kHz range |
| 5 - GROUND | Power and signal common | Single-point ground connection required for noise immunity; ties control logic and power return |
| 6 - OUTPUT | PWM output driver | Totem-pole stage sinks/sources up to 1 A; drives MOSFET gate directly with low saturation voltage |
| 7 - VCC | Supply input | Operates from 7.6–30 V; internal zener clamps at 36 V; powers all internal circuitry including reference and oscillator |
| 8 - VREF | 5 V reference output | Supplies regulated 5 V at up to 50 mA; used for RT biasing and optional analog circuitry |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Latching PWM with cycle-by-cycle current limit | Prevents transformer saturation and MOSFET failure during overload or short-circuit events |
| Internally trimmed 5.0 V reference | Eliminates need for external reference IC; maintains ±1% accuracy across -40°C to +150°C junction temp |
| Automatic feed-forward compensation | Compensates for line voltage variations in real time, improving load regulation without added components |
| Low start-up current (<0.5 mA) | Reduces auxiliary winding size and losses in flyback converters; enables efficient no-load operation |
| High-current totem-pole output | Drives 1000 pF gate capacitance with <150 ns transitions - reduces MOSFET switching losses |
Applications
| Telecom DC-DC Converters | AC-DC Adapters (Low-Voltage Input) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar current-mode PWM controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UC3845BN | DIP-8 package; identical electrical specs but through-hole mounting; higher thermal resistance (100 °C/W vs. 150 °C/W) | Suitable for prototyping or legacy through-hole boards; not recommended for high-density SMT production | Select when manual assembly or socket-based testing is required; avoid for thermally constrained layouts |
| TL494CN | Fixed 200 kHz oscillator; dual-output push-pull; no integrated current-sense comparator or UVLO hysteresis | Requires external current sensing and startup circuitry; better suited for half-bridge or full-bridge topologies | Choose only if dual-output gate drive or adjustable dead-time is needed; adds complexity for simple flyback designs |
Compared with UC3845BN, E-UC2845BD1013TR offers superior thermal performance and automated SMT placement; versus TL494CN, it delivers plug-and-play current-mode control with fewer external components and tighter regulation accuracy.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of E-UC2845BD1013TR?
The device guarantees 250 kHz oscillator frequency at 25°C, but its current-mode architecture supports stable operation up to 500 kHz when RT and CT values are selected per Figure 2 in the datasheet. Frequency stability degrades above 350 kHz due to propagation delays in the internal comparator and latch.
Can E-UC2845BD1013TR drive a MOSFET directly without a gate driver?
Yes - its totem-pole output delivers ±1 A peak current with <1.1 V low-level saturation and >13 V high-level output at 20 mA, sufficient to charge/discharge typical 1000 pF MOSFET gates within 150 ns. For >2 nF gates or high-side configurations, an external driver is recommended.
How does the 47–50% duty cycle limitation affect design?
This limit arises from an internal toggle flip-flop that blanks every other clock cycle, preventing subharmonic oscillation in continuous conduction mode. It restricts peak power transfer in flyback designs but improves stability and simplifies EMI filtering compared to 100% duty cycle controllers.
Is E-UC2845BD1013TR pin-compatible with UC3845BD1?
Yes - both are SO8-packaged members of the UCx84xB family with identical pinout, electrical characteristics, and functional behavior. The "E-" prefix denotes Aetrix's branded reel packaging and traceable lot coding; no electrical or mechanical differences exist.
