8.1.4 DCR Sensing

For the applications requiring lowest cost with minimum conduction loss, inductor DC resistance (DCR) is used to sense the inductor current rather than using a sense resistor. Shown in Figure 35 is a DCR sensing configuration using two DCR sensing resistors and one capacitor.

LM5122ZA DCR_sensing1_LM5122ZA.gifFigure 35. DCR Sensing

RCSN and CDCR selection must meet Equation 21 because this indirect current sensing method requires a time constant matching. CDCR is usually selected to be in the range of 0.1 µF to 2.2 µF.

Equation 21. LM5122ZA eq69_nvs954.gif

Smaller value of RCSN minimizes the voltage drop caused by CSN bias current, but increases the dynamic power dissipation of RCSN. The DC voltage drop of RCSN can be compensated by selecting the same value of RCSP, but the gain of current amplifier, which is typically 10, is affected by adding RCSP. The gain of current amplifier with the DCR sensing network can be determined as:

Equation 22. LM5122ZA eq99_nvs954.gif

Due to the reduced accuracy of DCR sensing, TI recommends FPWM operation when DCR sensing is used.
