Working Principles

The UC2825DW is a current-mode PWM controller that regulates the output voltage of power supplies. It operates by comparing the feedback voltage (FB) with a reference voltage (VREF) and adjusting the duty cycle of the output waveform accordingly. The error amplifier (COMP) amplifies the difference between FB and VREF, which is then used to control the switching frequency and duty cycle. By modulating the duty cycle, the controller adjusts the average output voltage to maintain a stable output.
