8.2.2.7.1 Small Signal Model

The TPS61378-Q1 uses the fixed frequency peak current mode control. There is an internal adaptive slope compensation to avoid subharmonic oscillation. With the inductor current information sensed, the small-signal model of the power stage reduces from a two-pole system, created by L and COUT, to a single-pole system, created by ROUT and COUT. The single-pole system is easily used with the loop compensation. Figure 8-4 shows the equivalent small signal elements of a boost converter.

The small signal of power stage is:

Equation 16. TPS61378-Q1

where

  • D is the duty cycle
  • ROUT is the output load resistor
  • RSENSE is the equivalent internal current sense resistor, which is typically 118 mΩ

The single pole of the power stage is:

Equation 17. TPS61378-Q1

where

  • COUT is the output capacitance. For a boost converter having multiple identical output capacitors in parallel, simply combine the capacitors with the equivalent capacitance

The zero created by the ESR of the output capacitor is:

Equation 18. TPS61378-Q1

where

  • RESR is the equivalent resistance in series of the output capacitor

The right-hand plane zero is:

Equation 19. TPS61378-Q1

where

  • D is the duty cycle
  • ROUT is the output load resistor
  • L is the inductance

Equation 20 shows the equation for feedback resistor network and the error amplifier.

Equation 20. TPS61378-Q1

where

  • REA is the output impedance of the error amplifier, typically REA = 500 MΩ
  • ƒP1, ƒP2 is the pole's frequency of the compensation
  • fZ is the zero’s frequency of the compensation network
Equation 21. TPS61378-Q1

where

  • CC is the zero capacitor compensation
Equation 22. TPS61378-Q1

where

  • CP is the pole capacitor compensation
  • RC is the resistor of the compensation network
