Calculating the Inductor Value
Typically the inductor is set for a ripple current (ΔI
10% to 35% of the maximum DC load. Regulators
requiring fast transient response use a value on the
high side of this range, while regulators that require very
low output ripple and/or use high-ESR capacitors
restrict allowable ripple current:
where f is the oscillator frequency and:
Setting the Ramp Resistor Value
The internal ramp voltage excursion (ΔV
should be set to 0.6V. R
where frequency (f) is expressed in KHz.
Setting the Current Limit
There are two levels of current-limit thresholds in
FAN2103. The first level of protection is through an
internal default limit set at the factory to limit output
current beyond normal usage levels. The second level
of protection is a flexible one to be set externally by the
user. Current-limit protection is enabled whenever the
lower of the two thresholds is reached. The FAN2103
uses its internal low-side MOSFET for current-sensing.
The current-limit threshold voltage (V

sampled at the end of each PWM off-time/cycle. The

The 10µA current sourced from the ILIM pin can be
used to establish a lower, temperature–dependent,
current-limit threshold by connecting an external
resistor (R

Loop Compensation
The loop is compensated using a feedback network
around the error amplifier. Figure 22 shows a complete
Type-3 compensation network. Type-2 compensation
eliminates R3 and C3.
Because the FAN2103 employs summing current-mode
architecture, Type-2 compensation can be used for
many applications. For applications that require wide
loop bandwidth and/or use very low-ESR output
capacitors, Type-3 compensation may be required.
R
in V
increases as V
to compensate the loop. For designs with low input
voltages (3V to 6.5V), it is recommended that a
separate R
values are used as compared to designs with V
between 6.5V and 24V.
Protection
The converter output is monitored and protected
against extreme overload, short-circuit, over-voltage,
and under-voltage conditions.
An internal “Fault Latch” is set for any fault intended to
shut down the IC. When the fault latch is set, the IC
discharges V
until FB<0.25V. The MOSFET is not turned on again
unless FB>0.5V. This behavior discharges the output
without causing undershoot (negative output voltage).
