9.3.10.3 Slope Compensation

The desired slope compensation, SC, can be configured with a resistor from the RSC pin to GND. The TPS7H4011 device adds a compensating ramp to the switch current signal for all duty cycles. Various values of RSC and the resulting slope compensation are shown in the Electrical Characteristics. Equation 8 is provided to approximate the value of RSC needed to achieve a desired slope compensation.

Equation 8. R S C = 0.208 × g m p s × S C - 1.5 × f S W

where

  • RSC is the suggested value of resistance in kΩ to achieve the desired slope compensation
  • gmps is the power stage gain in S (select the nominal value for the utilized current limit)
  • SC is the positive desired value of slope compensation in A/μs (note that the Electrical Characteristics gives this value as a negative unit)
  • fSW is the switching frequency in kHz

For additional guidance on selecting slope compensation values, see Section 10.2.2.9 in the application section.
