Cross Over Frequency:
The stability requirement will be satisfied by placing the
poles and zeros of the compensation network according
to following design rules. The consideration has been
taken to satisfy condition (16) regarding transconduc-
tance error amplifier.
These design rules will give a crossover frequency ap-
proximately one-tenth of the switching frequency. The
higher the band width, the potentially faster the load tran-
sient response. The DC gain will be large enough to pro-
vide high DC-regulation accuracy (typically -5dB to -12dB).
The phase margin should be greater than 45 for overall
stability.
Based on the frequency of the zero generated by ESR
versus crossover frequency, the compensation type can
be different. The table below shows the compensation
type and location of crossover frequency.

Compensation for Slave Error Amplfier for 2-Phase
Configuration
The slave error amplifier is a differential-input transcon-
ductance amplifier, in 2-phase configuration the main goal
for the slave feed back loop is to control the inductor
current to match the master's inductor current as well
provides highest bandwidth and adequate phase margin
for overall stability. The following analysis is valid for both
using external current sense resistor and using DCR of
inductors.
The transfer function of power stage is expressed by:
As shown the transfer function is a function of inductor
current.
The transfer function for the compensation network is
given by equation (19), when using a series RC circuit
as shown in Figure 17:
D(s) =
The loop gain function is:
H(s)=[G(s) × D(s) × R
H(s)=R
G(s) =
