criteria is met, the current sense signal should be the same
shape as the inductor current and the voltage signal between
CSxP and CSxN will represent the instantaneous value of
inductor current. Also, the circuit can be analyzed as if a
sense resistor of value R
designing inductors for use with inductive sensing,
tolerances and temperature effects should be considered.
Cores with a low permeability material or a large gap will
usually have minimal inductance change with temperature
and load. Copper magnet wire has a temperature coefficient
of 0.39% per degree C. The increase in winding resistance
at higher temperatures should be considered when setting
the phase peak current limit threshold. If current sensing
more accurate than provided by inductive sensing is
required, current can be sensed through a resistor as shown
in Figure 17.

Current Sharing Accuracy
should sense the current at identical points at each phase
sense resistance. Printed Circuit Board (PCB) traces that
carry inductor current can be used as part of the current sense
resistance by selecting where the current sense signal is
picked up along a current carrying trace, but variations of
PCB copper base thickness, plating, and etching can degrade
current sharing and must be well controlled. The total
current sense resistance used for calculations must include
any PCB trace resistance that carries inductor current
between the CSxP input and the CSxN input. Current Sense
Amplifier (CSA) input mismatch and the value of the
current sense component will determine the accuracy of the
current sharing between phases. The worst case CSA input
mismatch is ±4 mV and will typically be within 1.5 mV. The
difference in peak currents between phases will be the CSA
input mismatch divided by the current sense resistance. If all
current sense components are of equal resistance, a
1.5 mV mismatch with a 1.0 mW sense resistance will
contribute 1.5 A of current difference between phases.

degrade transient response, adaptive positioning (droop)
and current limit. During a positive current transient, the
COMP pin will be required to overshoot in response to the
current signal in order to maintain the output voltage. Phase
pulse−by−pulse overcurrent protection will trip earlier than
it would if compensated correctly. Similarly, the V
signal will overshoot which will produce too much transient
droop in the output voltage, and also result in hiccup−mode
current limit having a lower threshold for fast rising step
loads than for slowly rising output currents.
