Key Features
- Voltage-mode PWM control with programmable oscillator frequency allows precise regulation of output voltage in isolated and non-isolated DC-DC converter topologies
- Wide input voltage range of 8 V to 35 V (nominal 20 V) accommodates diverse power supply architectures from low-voltage to industrial bus rails
- Integrated soft-start, shutdown, and error amplifier functions simplify power supply design and reduce external component count
- 16-pin ceramic DIP package (GDIP) offers excellent reliability and thermal performance for military and high-reliability industrial applications
Applications
The UC1525BJ is used in high-reliability DC-DC converters, push-pull, half-bridge, and full-bridge power supply topologies for military, aerospace, and industrial equipment. It is well-suited for designing off-line switching power supplies and motor drive pre-regulators requiring stable voltage-mode PWM control. The device is also applied in telecom power systems and instrumentation where robust, high-temperature-rated switching controllers are essential.

Frequently Asked Questions
What control mode does the UC1525BJ use and what is its input voltage range?
The UC1525BJ uses voltage-mode PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control, which regulates the output by comparing a ramp signal to an error amplifier output. It operates over an input voltage range of 8 V to 35 V, with a nominal input of 20 V, making it versatile for a wide range of DC-DC converter applications.
What package does the UC1525BJ use and is it RoHS compliant?
The UC1525BJ is housed in a 16-pin ceramic DIP (GDIP) package, designated JESD-30 code R-GDIP-T16. It carries JESD-609 Code: e0, which indicates it is not restricted-materials compliant in the standard lead-free sense. The Pbfree Code: Yes suggests a lead-free version is available; verify the specific grade with Texas Instruments for your compliance requirements.
What power supply topologies can the UC1525BJ be used with?
The UC1525BJ is compatible with push-pull, half-bridge, full-bridge, and other double-ended switching power supply topologies. Its dual complementary totem-pole outputs provide gate drive signals for both switches in symmetric converter architectures, making it suitable for high-power DC-DC converters and off-line switchers.
Does the UC1525BJ have built-in soft-start or protection features?
Yes, the UC1525BJ includes an integrated soft-start circuit that gradually ramps up the duty cycle at startup, preventing inrush current and output overshoot. It also provides a shutdown input for overcurrent protection and a sync pin for frequency synchronization with external signals, simplifying protection circuitry design.
