Where,
• N is the number of phases, RESR is the output capacitor’s
Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) of the total capacitors,
• KISEN is the current sense gain as shown in Equation 34,
where RSENx and RSETx are per phase current sense resistor
and setting resistors described in “Current Sense for Individual

• Se/Sn is gain of the selected compensating slope over the
sensed inductor current up-ramp. It can be calculated in
Equation 36, where KSLOPE is the gain of selected
compensating slope over the sensed IL down slope (refer to
Equation 15 on page 32).

Equation 33 shows that the system is mainly a single order
system plus a Right Half Zero (RHZ), which commonly exists for
boost converter. The main pole ωpPS is determined by load and
output capacitance and the ESR zero ωESR is the same as buck
converter.
Since the ωRHZ changes with load, typically the boost converter
crossover frequency is set 1/5 to 1/3 of the ωRHZ frequency.
The double pole ωn is at half of the fSW and has minimum
effects at crossover frequency for most of the cases when the
crossover frequency is fairly low.
