3.3.2 Current Sense Resistor Filter Selection

For all designs is it recommended to add a low pass filter to the current sense signal. RF and CF implement this low pass filter as shown in Figure 3-1. The filter is added to help mitigate the impact of the leading edge spike on the current sense signal. RF is selected to be between 10Ω and 200Ω. For this design RF is selected to be 100Ω. CF must be less than the value specified in Equation 15 to ensure proper operation.

CF is selected to be 470pF.
