(4) Determination of RITH, CITH that works as a phase compensator
As the Current Mode Control is designed to limit the inductor current, a pole (phase lag) appears in the low frequency
area due to a CR filter consists of an output capacitor and a load resistance, while a zero (phase lead) appears in the
high frequency area due to the output capacitor and its ESR. So, the phases are easily compensated by adding a zero
to the power amplifier output with C and R as described below to cancel a pole at the power amplifier.

When the output current decreases, the load resistance Ro
increases and the pole frequency lowers.

Increasing capacitance of the output capacitor lowers the
pole frequency while the zero frequency does not change.
(This is because when the capacitance is doubled, the
capacitor ESR is reduced to half.)

Stable feedback loop may be achieved by canceling the pole fp (Min) produced by the output capacitor and the load
resistance with CR zero correction by the error amplifier.
