ADVANCE INFORMATION
Equation 36 indicates that the power plant is basically a first-order system. A Type-II compensator as shown in Figure 7-1 is adequate to stabilize the loop for both buck and boost mode operations.
Assuming the output impedance of the gm amplifier is RGM, the current loop compensation gain is determined by :
where
Considering CHF << CCOMP, Equation 38 can be simplified to :
Because RGM is > 5MegΩ, and the frequency range for loop compensation is usually above a few kHz, the effects of RGM on the loop gain in the interested frequency range becomes negligible. Therefore, substituting Equation 39 into Equation 37, and neglecting RGM, one can get the following:
From Figure 7-2, the open-loop gain of the inner current loop can be found as:
where
Substituting Equation 40 and Equation 36 into Equation 41, Ti(s) can be written as:
The poles and zeros of the total loop transfer function are determined by:
To tailor the total inner current loop gain to crossover at fCI, select the components of the compensation network according to the following guidelines, then fine tune the network for optimal loop performance.
Therefore, the compensation components can be derived from the above equations, as shown in Equation 49.
