UC3842BD Overview
What changes between part numbers, and what to check before you lock the BOM — Microcontrollers.
Key Features
- Lifecycle mix: ActiveConfirm lifecycle on the exact MPN, not just the base number prefix.
Target Applications
- Microcontrollers — design-in and field replacement
- BOM scrub where only the base prefix is known but suffix is TBD
- Second-source checks when the original MPN is constrained
Ordering Variants
Compare 2 UC3842BD part numbers by package, electrical parameters, lifecycle, and availability. Use RFQ for stock and lead-time confirmation.
| Part Number | Description | Manufacturer | Lifecycle | RoHS | Availability | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| UC3842BD | 1A SWITCHING CONTROLLER, 500kHz SWITCHING FREQ-MAX, PDSO14, PLASTIC, SOIC-14 | onsemi | Active | Compliant | In Stock | |
| UC3842BD1R2G | SOIC-8 PWM Controller, 275kHz, 30V, 1A, Boost/Flyback | onsemi | Active | Compliant | In Stock |

How to Choose the Right UC3842BD Microcontrollers
Match the footprint first
Pull the exact package drawing for your MPN — base-number swaps fail most often at the footprint, not the schematic.
Electrical headroom
Compare voltage and current columns in the variant table. For UC3842BD, a suffix with lower voltage or current rating will not survive the same circuit without recalculation.
Temp grade letter matters
Commercial (0–70 °C) and industrial (−40–85 °C+) suffixes look similar in the prefix — confirm ambient + self-heating, not just the first page of the datasheet.
Copy the full MPN
Do not BOM only "UC3842BD" — include the full suffix (e.g. 1R2G). RFQ with reel/tube preference and required date code.
