PRODUCTION DATA
For overcurrent protection at 16.5 A, 47.5 kΩ is chosen from Table 7-7. For 0.5-ms soft start and FCCM operation, 47.5 kΩ is chosen from Table 7-5 and Table 7-6.
For converter stability and selecting the compensation network, Table 7-3 provides four compensation choices. First, the power stage double pole filter frequency needs to be known. For this example, the output capacitor bank selects as 4x100-μF ceramic capacitors in 0805 size to account the capacitor derating factors. Next, the LC filter frequency is calculated to 17 kHz. Finally, COMP3 becomes the best choice to select by using a 26.1-kΩ or 78.7-kΩ resistor on the COMP pin to GND.
