RCOMP, CCOMP and CHF configure the error amplifier gain and phase characteristics to produce a stable voltage loop. For a quick start, follow the following four steps:
- Select crossover frequency, fC. Select the cross over frequency (fC) at one fifth of the RHPZ frequency or one tenth of the switching frequency whichever is lower. Choose RHPZ with minimum input voltage and maximum output voltage.
Equation 90.
Equation 91.
Crossover frequency fc=1.9kHz is selected.
- Determine required RCOMP
Knowing fc, RCOMP is calculated as follows:
Equation 92.
A standard value of 50kΩ is selected for RCOMP
- Determine CCOMP
Place ωZ_EA at the load pole frequency ωP_LF to cancel load pole. Knowing RCOMP, CCOMP is calculated as follows:
Equation 93.
A standard value of 35nF is selected for CCOMP
- Determine CHF.
Place ωHF at ωRHPZ or ωZ_ESR zero whichever is lower. Knowing RCOMP, RHPZ and ESR zero, CHF is calculated as follows:
Equation 94.
A standard value of 2.2nF is selected for CHF.
