Finally this little gem (UC3848) of an average current mode controller is Life Time Buy (End of Life). The product page lists an alternate but the alternate does not have average current mode control.
Is TI offering any average current mode control alternates. We could go digital but one of the nice things about the UC3848 is the ability to operate well over a huge dynamic range and this is challenging for digital systems (in the low cost arena)
Does any one else in the community have a plan how they will deal with this?
