MC44603
As depicted in Figure 47, an undervoltage lockout has
been incorporated to garantee that the IC is fully functional
before allowing system operation.

The large hysteresis and the low startup current of the
MC44603 make it ideally suited for off–line converter
applications where efficient bootstrap startup techniques are
required.
