Product details
Overview
SG2524BDW-TR from Microsemi is a regulating pulse width modulator IC designed for industrial-grade switching power supplies, featuring 7 V to 40 V input operation, 5 V reference trimmed to ±1%, 100 Hz–400 kHz oscillator range, dual 100 mA output transistors, and undervoltage lockout. It serves as the core PWM controller in isolated DC-DC converters and offline SMPS designs operating from –25 °C to 85 °C.
For engineers reviewing the SG2524BDW-TR datasheet, SG2524BDW-TR pinout, SG2524BDW-TR application, or SG2524BDW-TR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, package mapping to DW 16-pin SOWB, thermal resistance (θJA = 95 °C/W), true digital shutdown behavior, and double-pulse suppression logic - all confirmed for the SG2524B variant in DW packaging.
Technical Context
The SG2524BDW-TR implements a fixed-frequency voltage-mode PWM architecture with a DC-coupled toggle flip-flop and PWM data latch to eliminate edge oscillations and false triggering. Its error amplifier supports 2.3 V to 5.0 V common-mode input range and delivers 60–78 dB open-loop gain, while the current limit amplifier accepts 0 V to VIN + 2.5 V sense common-mode voltage with 180–220 mV threshold.
Oscillator timing uses external RT/CT components (2 kΩ–150 kΩ / 1 nF–0.1 μF) to set frequency between 100 Hz and 400 kHz; sawtooth waveform peaks at 3.5–3.9 V and valleys at 0.6–1.0 V under specified conditions. Output stage features two NPN transistors with 60 V collector rating, 0.2–1.0 V saturation voltage at 10–100 mA, and 17.5–19 V emitter output swing.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PWM controller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| UC3524N | Same pinout, identical functional block diagram, but reference tolerance ±2% and no MIL-STD-883 option | Commercial-temp only (0 °C to 70 °C); lacks extended common-mode range at current limit input | Select UC3524N only for cost-sensitive commercial designs where ±2% reference and narrower temp range are acceptable |
| TL5001CDR | Single-ended output, no dual transistor drivers; 1.25 V reference; requires external driver for high-current switching | Designed for boost/buck converters, not push-pull or forward topologies requiring complementary outputs | Choose TL5001CDR only for single-switch topologies where dual outputs are unnecessary and board space is constrained |
Compared with UC3524N and TL5001CDR, the SG2524BDW-TR provides tighter reference accuracy (±1% vs ±2%), wider industrial temperature range (–25 °C to +85 °C), and native dual-output capability - making it uniquely suited for ruggedized, high-reliability industrial SMPS where output symmetry and thermal margin are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum oscillator frequency supported by SG2524BDW-TR?
The SG2524BDW-TR supports oscillator frequencies up to 400 kHz when configured with RT = 2 kΩ and CT = 470 pF. This upper limit is guaranteed across the full –25 °C to +85 °C operating range and enables compact magnetics design in high-density power supplies. The SG2524BDW-TR datasheet specifies 400 kHz as the maximum tested and characterized frequency for this variant.
Does SG2524BDW-TR support external synchronization?
Yes, SG2524BDW-TR supports external clock synchronization via the SYNC pin (Pin 13). It accepts TTL- or CMOS-level square waves to force phase alignment of the internal oscillator, enabling noise reduction in multi-phase or multi-rail power systems. This feature is fully documented in the SG1524B/SG2524B/SG3524B datasheet Revision 2.0, Section 2.1 and Table 1.
What is the current limit threshold voltage for SG2524BDW-TR?
The current limit threshold voltage for SG2524BDW-TR is 200 mV typical, with a guaranteed range of 180 mV to 220 mV over temperature and supply voltage. This value applies to the VC pin (Pin 4) and is specified in Table 1 of the datasheet under "Sense voltage" for SG1524B/SG2524B variants. It enables precise, repeatable overcurrent protection without external scaling.
Is SG2524BDW-TR pin-compatible with UC3524N?
Yes, SG2524BDW-TR is pin-compatible with UC3524N in the 16-pin DIP and SOIC packages, including matching pin functions and electrical interface definitions. However, SG2524BDW-TR offers tighter reference tolerance (±1% vs ±2%), extended temperature range (–25 °C to +85 °C vs 0 °C to +70 °C), and enhanced reliability features per MIL-STD-883.
What package type does SG2524BDW-TR use?
SG2524BDW-TR uses the DW package: a 16-pin Small Outline Wide Body (SOWB) plastic package with matte tin lead finish, RoHS-compliant, and rated for θJA = 95 °C/W. This is explicitly defined in Table 10 of the SG1524B/SG2524B/SG3524B datasheet Revision 2.0 and confirmed by the "-DW" suffix in the part number.
