Loop Response

The open-loop transfer function of a boost regulator is defined as the product of modulator transfer function and feedback transfer function.

The modulator transfer function of a current mode boost regulator including a power stage with an embedded current loop can be simplified as a one load pole (FLP), one ESR zero (FZ_ESR), and one Right Half Plane (RHP) zero (FRHP) system, which can be explained as follows.

Modulator transfer function is defined as Equation 15:

  • GUID-D82286D9-1C50-42EA-A53D-6D848C28E741-low.gif

  • GUID-9231ED92-DE6F-4FC8-9C36-3F305F2C0198-low.gif

RESR is the equivalent series resistance (ESR) of the output capacitor which is specified in the capacitor data sheet.

RCOMP, CCOMP, and CHF (see Figure 9-3) configure the error amplifier gain and phase characteristics to produce a stable voltage loop with fast response. This compensation network creates a dominant pole at low frequency (FDP_EA), a mid-band zero pole (FZ_EA), and a high frequency pole (FP_EA).

The feedback transfer function is defined as Equation 16:

Equation 16. GUID-3CA0DC8B-93E0-4E80-8D78-B3F1235BC4B2-low.gif

where

  • GUID-65F01283-4157-402F-BD01-95BEF815AE61-low.gif
  • GUID-A9B7FF42-CFB5-452F-914F-D16A8819A77F-low.gif

  • GUID-F6252652-6BB4-421B-9A31-52AA7772A03F-low.gif

RO (≈ 10 MΩ) is the output resistance of the error amplifier and Gm (≈ 2 mA/V) is the transconductance of the error amplifier.

Assuming FLP is canceled by FZ_EA, FRHP is much higher than crossover frequency (FCROSS), and if FZ_ESR is either canceled by FP_EA or FZ_ESR, then that is much higher than FCROSS. The open-loop transfer function can be simplified as Equation 17:

Equation 17. GUID-02B5037C-AAEC-484B-9353-F999B8FC8C70-low.gif

Because |T(s)|=1 at the crossover frequency, the crossover frequency can be simply estimated using those assumptions.
