MC44603A
Enhanced Mixed Frequency
Mode GreenLinet PWM
Controller:
Fixed Frequency, Variable Frequency,
Standby Mode
The MC44603A is an enhanced high performance controller that is
specifically designed for off−line and dc−to−dc converter applications.
This device has the unique ability of automatically changing operating
modes if the converter output is overloaded, unloaded, or shorted,
offering the designer additional protection for increased system
reliability. The MC44603A has several distinguishing features when
compared to conventional SMPS controllers. These features consist of
a foldback facility for overload protection, a standby mode when the
converter output is slightly loaded, a demagnetization detection for
reduced switching stresses on transistor and diodes, and a high current
totem pole output ideally suited for driving a power MOSFET. It can
also be used for driving a bipolar transistor in low power converters
(< 150 W). It is optimized to operate in discontinuous mode but can
also operate in continuous mode. Its advanced design allows use in
current mode or voltage mode control applications.

Maximum ratings are those values beyond which device damage can occur. Maximum ratings applied to the device are individual stress limit
values (not normal operating conditions) and are not valid simultaneously. If these limits are exceeded, device functional operation is not implied,
damage may occur and reliability may be affected.
