8.3.10 Slope Compensation

The LM51770x provides a slope compensation pin to enable stable operation and the best transient performance over a wide operating range. According to peak current mode control theory, slope compensation is required at operation with duty cycle greater than 50%. The value for the resistor on the SLOPE pin is calculated with Equation 12.

Equation 12. R ( S L O P E ) =   L R ( C S ) × 50 × 10 6 V A s

During the design process, consider the following guidelines for the slope compensation:

  1. The quotient of peak current sense resistor, R(CS), and the main inductor, L, need to be smaller than the factor given by Equation 13.
    Equation 13. R ( C S ) L < 1 V   × f ( s w ) V o × 10

    where

    • VO is the maximum output voltage of a system with dynamic voltage changes.
  2. The quotient is within the limits given by Equation 14.
    Equation 14. 100   H z   <   R ( C S ) L   <   8000   H z
