Its value is a function of the IC package, the application
layout and the air cooling system.
The freewheeling diode also contributes a significant
portion of the total converter loss. This loss should be
minimized to increase the converter efficiency by using
Schottky diodes with low forward drop (V
Loop Compensation Design
The SC4519 has an internal error amplifier and requires
a compensation network to connect between the COMP
pin and GND pin as shown in Figure 3. The compensation
network includes C4, C5 and R3. R1 and R2 are used to
program the output voltage according to:
Assuming the power stage ESR (equivalent series
resistance) zero is an order of magnitude higher than
the closed loop bandwidth, which is typically one tenth of
the switching frequency, the power stage control to output
transfer function with the current loop closed (Ridley
model) for the SC4519 will be as follows:
Where:
R
C – Output capacitor.
The goal of the compensation design is to shape the loop
to have a high DC gain, high bandwidth, enough phase
margin, and high attenuation for high frequency noises.
Figure 3 gives a typical compensation network which
offers 2 poles and 1 zero to the power stage:
