Output ripple compensation and loop stability
The loop is closed connecting the center tap of the output divider (internally, when the fixed
output voltage is chosen, or externally, using the MODE pin in the adjustable output voltage
mode). The feedback node is the negative input of the error comparator, while the positive
input is internally connected to the reference voltage (Vr = 0.9 V). When the feedback
voltage becomes lower than the reference voltage, the PWM comparator goes to high and
sets the control logic, turning on the high-side MOSFET. After the on-time (calculated as
previously described) the system releases the high-side MOSFET and turns on the
synchronous rectifier.
The voltage drop along ground and supply PCB paths, used to connect the output capacitor
to the load, is a source of DC error. Furthermore the system regulates the output voltage
valley, not the average, as shown in
capacitor is an additional source of DC error. To compensate this error, an integrative
network is introduced in the control loop, by connecting the output voltage to the COMP pin
through a capacitor (C
Figure 31. Circuitry for output ripple compensation
The additional capacitor is used to reduce the voltage on the COMP pin when higher than
300 mVpp and is unnecessary for most of applications. The trans conductance amplifier
(gm) generates a current, proportional to the DC error, used to charge the CINT capacitor.
The voltage across the CINT capacitor feeds the negative input of the PWM comparator,
forcing the loop to compensate the total static error. An internal voltage clamp forces the
COMP pin voltage range to ±150 mV with respect to VREF. This is useful to avoid or smooth
output voltage overshoot during a load transient. When the pulse-skip mode is entered, the
clamping range is automatically reduced to 60 mV in order to enhance the recovering
capability. In the ripple amplitude is larger than 150 mV, an additional capacitor CFILT can
be connected between the COMP pin and ground to reduce ripple amplitude, otherwise the
integrator will operate out of its linearity range. This capacitor is unnecessary for most of
applications and can be omitted.
