7.2.2.4 Ramp Capacitor

With the inductor and sense resistor value selected, the value of the ramp capacitor (CRAMP) necessary for the emulation ramp circuit is Equation 13.

Equation 13. GUID-151342C4-08CF-43F5-86D0-654F15ADA21B-low.gif

where

  • L is the value of the output inductor in Henrys
  • gm is the ramp generator transconductance (5 µA/V)
  • A is the current sense amplifier gain (10 V/V)

For the 5-V output design example, the ramp capacitor is calculated with Equation 14.

Equation 14. GUID-10A16426-7695-4823-AD03-67FD7475C3B9-low.gif

The next lowest standard value of 270 pF was selected for CRAMP. A COG type capacitor with 5% or better tolerance is recommended.
