is low enough such that Q1 and Q2 do not saturate, even the COMP pin. The output impedance of the gm stage is when VIN1 is 1V. When there is no load, FB1 rises slightly about 1MΩ and thus, 84dB of typical DC error amplifier above 1.23V, causing VC (the error amplifier’s output) to open-loop gain is realized along with a typical 75MHz decrease. Comparator A2’s output stays high, keeping uncompensated unity-gain crossover frequency. Note switch Q3 in the off state. As increased output loading that the overall feedback loop’s DC gain decreases from causes the FB1 voltage to decrease, A1’s output increases. the gain provided by the error amplifier by the attenuation Switch current is regulated directly on a cycle-by-cycle factor in the resistor divider network which sets the DC basis by the VC node. The flip flop is set at the beginning output voltage. External access to the high impedance of each switch cycle, turning on the switch. When the gain node of the error amplifier permits typical loop summation of a signal representing switch current and a compensation to be accomplished with a series RC + C ramp generator (introduced to avoid subharmonic oscilla- network to ground. tions at duty factors greater than 50%) exceeds the VC A high speed, high current output stage buffers the COMP signal, comparator A2 changes state, resetting the flip flop node and drives up to 5000pF of “effective” MOSFET gate and turning off the switch. More power is delivered to the capacitance with almost no change in load transient per- output as switch current is increased. The output voltage, formance.

This pushes the pole due to the response can be optimized by the addition of a phase lead error amplifier output impedance and the MOSFET input capacitor CPL in parallel with R1 in applications where capacitance well beyond the loop crossover frequency. If large value or low ESR output capacitors are used. the capacitance of the MOSFET used is less than 1500pF, As the load current is decreased, the switch turns on for a it may be necessary to add a small value series gate shorter period each cycle.

The 1.21V reference circuit is completed by providing an error signal to the FB2 is tied to the noninverting input of the main error amplifier pin.
