Crossover Frequency Selection

The crossover frequency of the loop is selected to be 1/5th the right half plane zero frequency, and less than the pole set by the BJT capacitance and the pull-up resistor. Equation 29 details how to calculate the 1/5th the right half plane zero frequency.

The crossover frequency (fCROSS) is selected less than 1/5th the right half plane zero frequency. To allow for component tolerances over temperature and process, a crossover frequency of 6kHz is selected.
