Control Loop Gain and Phase Measurement Procedure

  1. Follow Section 5.3 steps 1 – 5 to set VIN and LOAD1 to the desired operating condition:
    1. If JP1 is installed (FSS enabled), loop response data about the modulation frequency (30 kHz) may be affected.
  2. Connect a 1-kHz – 1-MHz isolation transformer to TP5 and TP7 as shown in Figure 5-3.
  3. Connect input signal amplitude measurement probe (channel A) to TP7 as shown in Figure 5-3.
  4. Connect output signal amplitude measurement probe (channel B) to TP5 as shown in Figure 5-3.
  5. Connect ground lead of channel A and channel B to TP6 and TP8 as shown in Figure 5-3.
  6. Inject 30 mV or less signal across R3 through isolation transformer.
  7. Sweep frequency from 1 kHz to 1 MHz with 10-Hz or lower post filter.
  8. Control loop gain can be measured by GUID-8CB81DB9-6126-4434-9BAC-021DA56BE62F-low.gif
  9. Control loop phase can be measured by the phase difference between channel A and channel B.
  10. Control to output response (power stage transfer function) can be measured by connecting channel A probe to TP10 (COMP) and channel B probe to TP5 (CHB).
  11. Output to control response (compensated error amplifier transfer function) can be measured by connecting channel A probe to TP7 (CHA) and channel B probe to TP10 (COMP).
  12. Follow Section 5.3 steps 6 and 7 to power down.
