stability in the current-balance loop. For most applica-
tions, a 470pF capacitor from CCI to the switching reg-
ulator’s output works well.
Connecting the compensation network to the output

voltage signal, especially during transients. To reduce
noise pickup in applications that have a widely distrib-
uted layout, it is sometimes helpful to connect the com-
pensation network to the quiet analog ground rather
than V
Voltage positioning dynamically lowers the output volt-
age in response to the load current, reducing the out-
put capacitance and processor’s power-dissipation
requirements. The controller uses a transconductance
amplifier to set the transient and DC output voltage
droop (Figure 2) as a function of the load. This adjusta-
bility allows flexibility in the selected current-sense
resistor value or inductor DCR, and allows smaller cur-

Connect a resistor (R
the DC steady-state droop (load line) based on the
required voltage-positioning slope (R
where the effective current-sense resistance (R
depends on the current-sense method (see the Current
Sense section), and the voltage-positioning amplifier’s
transconductance (G
defined in the Electrical Characteristics table. The con-
troller sums together the input signals of the current-
sense inputs (CSP_, CSN_).
When the inductors’ DCR is used as the current-sense
element (R
should include an NTC thermistor to minimize the tem-
perature dependence of the voltage-positioning slope.
