8.2.2.4 R13 = RSENSE

To select the current sense resistor, begin by calculating the minimum K values for each mode using Equation 20 and Equation 21. K represents the slope compensation of the controller and is different for each mode, KBUCK and KBUCK-BOOST. KBUCK and KBUCK-BOOST were selected to be 1.33 and 3, respectively.

Equation 20. LM25118 eq06_new_snvs726.gif
Equation 21. LM25118 eq07_new_snvs726.gif
Equation 22. KBUCK = 1.33
Equation 23. KBUCK-BOOST = 3

Use Equation 24 and Equation 25 to calculate RSENSE for each mode of operation. A design margin, M, should be selected between 10%-30% to allow for component tolerances. For this design M was selected to be 10%.

Equation 24. LM25118 30165132.gif
Equation 25. LM25118 30165133.gif
Equation 26. R13(BUCK) = 19.89 mΩ
Equation 27. R13(BUCK-BOOST) = 15.5 mΩ

An RSENSE value of no more than 15.5 mΩ must be used to ensure the required maximum output current in the buck-boost mode. A standard value of 15 mΩ was selected for this design.
