Slope Compensation

To prevent subharmonic oscillations, the TPS55340-Q1 device uses internal slope compensation. Use Equation 6 to calculate the sensed current slope of boost converter.

Equation 6. GUID-73124767-A4A5-4575-84BA-F10627EE0A66-low.gif

Use Equation 7 to calculate the slope compensation dv/dt.

Equation 7. GUID-40958CC1-22E1-4E12-87BE-71ABD9A453FC-low.gif

In a converter with current mode control, in addition to the output voltage feedback loop, the inner current loop including the inductor current sampling effect and the slope compensation on the small-signal response must be taken into account as calculated in Equation 8.

Equation 8. GUID-E0D25119-F6A7-4B64-8514-539DB2A12A4E-low.gif

where

  • R(SENSE) (15 mΩ) is the equivalent current-sense resistor.
  • R(FREQ) is the timing resistor used to set frequency.
  • D is the duty cycle.
Note:

If S(n) << S(e), the converter operates in voltage mode control rather than operating current mode control and Equation 8 is no longer valid.
