At turn on, the upper MOSFET begins to conduct and this
transition occurs over a time t
approximate power loss is P
A third component involves the lower MOSFET’s
reverse-recovery charge, Q
fully commutated to the upper MOSFET before the
lower-MOSFET’s body diode can draw all of Q
conducted through the upper MOSFET across VIN. The
power dissipated as a result is P
Equation 28:
Finally, the resistive part of the upper MOSFET’s is given in
Equation 29 as P
The total power dissipated by the upper MOSFET at full load
can now be approximated as the summation of the results
from Equations 26, 27, and 28. Since the power equations
depend on MOSFET parameters, choosing the correct
MOSFETs can be an iterative process involving repetitive
solutions to the loss equations for different MOSFETs and
different switching frequencies, as shown in Equation 29.
Current Sensing Resistor
The resistors connected to the Isen+ pins determine the
gains in the load-line regulation loop and the channel-current
balance loop as well as setting the overcurrent trip point.
Select values for these resistors by using Equation 30:
where R
pin, N is the active channel number, R
the current sense element, either the DCR of the inductor or
R
desired overcurrent trip point. Typically, I
to be 1.2x the maximum load current of the specific
application.
With integrated temperature compensation, the sensed
current signal is independent on the operational temperature
of the power stage, i.e. the temperature effect on the current
sense element R
temperature compensation function. R
should be the resistance of the current sense element at the
room temperature.
When the integrated temperature compensation function is
disabled by pulling the TCOMP pin to GND, the sensed
current will be dependent on the operational temperature of

the power stage, since the DC resistance of the current
sense element may be changed according to the operational
temperature. R
resistance of the current sense element at the all operational
temperature.
In certain circumstances, it may be necessary to adjust the
value of one or more ISEN resistors. When the components
of one or more channels are inhibited from effectively
dissipating their heat so that the affected channels run hotter
than desired, choose new, smaller values of RISEN for the
affected phases (see the section entitled “Channel-Current
Balance” on page 15). Choose R
desired decrease in temperature rise in order to cause
proportionally less current to flow in the hotter phase, as
shown in Equation 31:
In Equation 31, make sure that ΔT
rise above the ambient temperature, and ΔT
temperature rise above the ambient temperature. While a
single adjustment according to Equation 31 is usually
sufficient, it may occasionally be necessary to adjust R
two or more times to achieve optimal thermal balance
between all channels.
Load-Line Regulation Resistor
The load-line regulation resistor is labelled R
Its value depends on the desired loadline requirement of the
application.
The desired loadline can be calculated using Equation 32:
where I
and VR

Based on the desired loadline R
resistor can be calculated using Equation 33:
where N is the active channel number, R
resistor connected to the ISEN+ pin, and R
resistance of the current sense element, either the DCR of
the inductor or R
If one or more of the current sense resistors are adjusted for
thermal balance (as in Equation 31), the load-line regulation
resistor should be selected based on the average value of
the current sensing resistors, as given in Equation 34:
