HSMC Product Specification
H3842P / HSMC3842
HIGH PERFORMANCE CURRENT MODE CONTROLERS
Description
The H3842P/HSMC3842 are high performance fixed frequency current mode
controllers. They are specifically designed for Off-Line and DC To DC converter
applications offering the designer a cost-effective solution with minimal external
components. These integrated circuits feature a trimmed oscillator for precise duty
cycle control. A temperature compensa-ted reference, high gain error amplifier,
current sensing comparator, and a high current totem pole output ideally suited for
driving a power MOSFET. Also included are protective features consisting of input and reference undervoltage
lockouts each with hysteresis, cycle-by-cycle current limiting, programmable output deadtime, and a latch for single
pulse metering.

Function
Description
Pin1: Compensation
This pin is the Error Amplifier output and is made available for
loop compensation.
Pin2: Voltage Feedback
This is the inverting input of the Error Amplifier. It's normally
connected to the switching power supply output through a
resistor divider.
Pin3: Current Sense
A voltage proportional to inductor current is connected to this
input. The PWM uses this information to terminate the output
switch conduction.
Pin4: RT/CT
The oscillator frequency and maximum output duty cycle are
programmed by connecting resistor RT to Vref and cpacitor CT
to ground. Operation to 500kHz is possible.
Pin5: Ground
This pin is the combined control circuitry and power ground.
Pin6: Output
This output directly drives the gate of a power MOSFET. Peak
currents up to 1A are sourced and sunk by this pin.
Pin7: Vcc
This pin is the positive supply of the control IC.
