System control loop compensation

The multi-phase rail control system can be modeled with an equivalent single-phase rail

converter with the only difference being the equivalent inductor L/N (where each phase has

an L inductor and N is the number of the configured phases), see Figure 15.

Figure 15. Equivalent control loop

The control loop gain results (obtained opening the loop after the COMP pin):

Equation 14

where:

•

RLL is the equivalent output resistance determined by the droop function (voltage

positioning)

•

ZP(s) is the impedance resulting from the parallel of the output capacitor (and its ESR)

and the applied load RO

•

ZF(s) is the compensation network impedance

•

ZL(s) is the equivalent inductor impedance

•

A(s) is the error amplifier gain

•

is the PWM transfer function.

The control loop gain is designed in order to obtain a high DC gain to minimize static error

and to cross the 0dB axes with a constant -20 dB/dec slope with the desired crossover

frequency

ω T. Neglecting the effect of ZF(s), the transfer function has one zero and two
