UC3973 Overview
The UC3973 is a high performance current mode PWM controller ideally suited for low standby power. Low VDD startup current make the power reliable on startup design and a large value resistor could be used in the startup circuit to minimize the standby power. At no load condition, the IC operates in power-saving mode for lower standby power, decreasing frequency for Higher conversion efficiency at light load...
