Conclusion

The feedforward capacitor used in the feedback network improves the performance of internally compensated dc-dc converters. The respective data sheet describes how to generally size the feedforward capacitor for improved loop response. However, with measured response characteristics of a working design, the feedforward capacitor can be sized to facilitate an improved transient response. The calculated optimal Cff value can be increased or decreased to optimize the converters transient response for minimum voltage deviation or higher phase margin.
