The current rise time of synchronous buck is a function of L/R time. Larger power inductor and smaller path impedance limits the current speed. Figure 3-16 shows current transient response in charge mode tested at 10 mΩ. If the control loop is optimized at 10-mΩ output load, the current transient will be slower by 10 times when the circuit is tested at 100-mΩ load. It is important to optimize the loop with the battery load to achieve the desired result.
