What are the key features of UC3855ANG4?
- Current-mode PWM control architecture enabling precise inductor current shaping for near-unity power factor correction in AC-DC converters
- Wide input voltage range of 15V to 35V (nominal 18V) accommodating universal AC mains rectified inputs across global voltage standards
- High-performance preregulator design with integrated gate drive suitable for continuous conduction mode boost PFC topologies
- 20-pin PDIP through-hole package offering robust connectivity and heat dissipation for industrial power supply applications
What is UC3855ANG4 used for?
The UC3855ANG4 is designed for use as the control IC in active power factor correction boost pre-regulators in AC-DC power supplies, including PC power supplies, server power units, and industrial motor drives requiring compliance with IEC 61000-3-2 harmonic current limits. Its current-mode PWM control enables high power factor (>0.99) and low total harmonic distortion (THD) across a wide load range. It is also used in UPS systems, solar inverter front-ends, and telecom rectifiers where energy efficiency and regulatory compliance are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which designs are a good fit for UC3855ANG4 with 15 V to 35 V?
UC3855ANG4 fits industrial, embedded, and repair-oriented electronic assemblies when the design needs 15 V to 35 V and 35 V. It is a practical choice when the BOM also matches the 20-pin DIP footprint.
How should engineers check package compatibility for UC3855ANG4?
Compare the PCB land pattern, height allowance, and assembly process against the 20-pin DIP style. The 20 pins detail is the first check before approving a replacement.
What matters when sourcing UC3855ANG4 as a replacement?
Confirm the same 15 V to 35 V, 35 V, manufacturer traceability, and lifecycle status before substituting it. Buyers should also verify stock for the exact 20-pin DIP configuration.
