UC2572D (TEXAS INSTRUMENTS)

The UC2572D is a negative output flyback Pulse Width Modulator converts a positive input voltage to a regulated negative output voltage. The chip is optimized for use in a single inductor negative flyback switching converter employing an external PMOS switch. The block diagram consists of a precision reference, an error amplifier configured for voltage mode operation, an oscillator, a PWM comparator with latching logic and a 0.5A peak gate driver. It includes an undervoltage lockout circuit to insure sufficient input supply voltage is present before any switching activity can occur and a pulse-by-pulse current limit. Output current can be sensed and limited to user determined maximum value. The UVLO circuit turns the chip off when the input voltage is below the UVLO threshold. In addition, a sleep comparator interfaces to the UVLO circuit to turn the chip off.
