9.3.9.4 Frequency Compensation

External frequency compensation is required for the TPS7H401x. There are several industry techniques used to compensate DC-DC regulators. For the TPS7H401x, type 2A compensation is most often recommended though other approaches are acceptable. See Section 10.2.2.10 in the application section for a specific example.
