Working Principles

The UC3823ADW is a high-performance PWM controller that regulates power delivery in various applications. It operates by comparing the feedback voltage (FB) with a reference voltage (VREF) to generate an error signal. This error signal is then processed to adjust the duty cycle and frequency of the output waveform, controlling the power delivered to the load.

The IC incorporates a comprehensive set of protection features, including overcurrent, overvoltage, undervoltage, and overtemperature protection. These safeguards ensure safe and reliable operation under different operating conditions.
