General Description
The MIC3832 and MIC3833 are unique PWM controllers
designed for current-fed, multiple-output or push-pull,
switched-mode power supply applications.
The MIC3832/3 features UVLO (undervoltage lockout) with
hysteresis, soft start with a programmable time constant,
cycle-by-cycle current limiting, a PWM latch to prevent mul-
tiple outputs due to noise or ringing, and front-edge blanking.
Current-fed topologies eliminate core saturation problems
caused by shoot through (cross conduction) of push-pull
circuits and reduce stress on the switching transistors.
The MIC3832/3 has one PWM stage capable of operating up
to 500kHz and two output stages, Q and Q, that operate at
one-half of the system frequency at a fixed 50% duty cycle.
The MIC3832 UVLO circuit permits startup when the supply
is above 15.9V and forces shutdown when the supply drops
below 9.8V. The MIC3833 starts up above 8.3V and shuts
down below 7.8V. An internal 22V zener diode provides low
power overvoltage protection.
The three output stages are totem-pole drivers capable of 1A
peak current to external power MOSFETs, BJTs, or IGBTs.
The Q and Q outputs have an intentional 50ns overlap (no
dead time).

... Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) requires that the input voltage rise above 15.9V (MIC3832) or 8.3V (MIC3833) before the startup circuit is energized. Once operating, the controller will not shut down until the supply drops to 9.8V (MIC3832) or 7.8V (MIC3833). There is an internal 22V zener between V and ground for overvoltage clamping. Zener current should be limited to less than 20mA ...
