The 5k potentiometer sets a reference voltage at pin 2.
When ramp voltage of pin 5 reaches this reference voltage,
output drive pulse is active ON. Varying the discharge
resistor will vary the dead time. Increasing the discharge
resistor will effect an increase in the dead time.
REPLACING BIPOLAR VERSIONS WITH CMOS
Although the pin-out and functions are the same for both
the Bipolar and CMOS versions, there are several differ-
ences that need to be taken into account. The reference
voltage on the TC35C25 is 4V instead of 5V and the
oscillator ramp is 3V, not 4V. The R
T
and C
T
values are
different for any particular frequency and dead-time require-
ment.
The most important difference is that the absolute
maximum rating of the V
DD
and V
IN
voltages for the TC35C25
is 18V, whereas the UC3525 is 40V.
