... L6258E Gain and bandwidth must be chosen depending on many parameters of the application, like the characteristics of the load, power supply etc..., and most important is the stability of the system that must always be guaranteed. To have a very flexible system and to have the possibility to adapt the system to any application, the error amplifier must be compensated using an RC network connected between the output and the negative input of the same ...

... L6258E Before analysing the error amplifier block and the sense transconductance block, we have to do this consideration: Aloop = Ax| = ACpw and Bx| = ACerr this means that Ax|dB is the sum of the power amplifier and load blocks; Ax| = (29,5) + (-31.4) = -1.9dB dB The BODE analysis of the transfer function of Ax is: Figure 7 ...

... L6258E In this case the Bx block has a DC gain equal to the open loop and equal to zero at a frequency given by the following formula: In order to cancel the pole of the load, the zero of the Bx block must be located at the same frequency of 163Hz; so now we have to find a compromise between the resistor and the capacitor of the compensation network ...

... The EA_IN1 and EA_IN2 pins carry out high impedance lines and care must be taken to avoid coupled noise on this signals. The suggestion is to put the components connected to this pins close to the L6258E, to surround them with ground tracks and to keep as far as possible fast switching outputs of the device. Remember also an 1 Mohm resistor between EA_INx and EA_OUTx to avoid output current spike during supply startup/shutdown ...
