Closing the loop

Similarly for ALC the poles can usually be defined as a double pole whose value is:
Equation 11
FPLC

--------------------1----------------------
2 ⋅ π ⋅ L ⋅ COUT

PWM comparator
The PWM gain is given by the following formula:
Equation 12
GPWM(s)
=
---------------------------V----c---c---------------------------
(VOSCMAX – VOSCMIN)
where VOSCMAX is the maximum value of a sawtooth waveform and VOSCMIN is the
minimum value. A voltage feed-forward is implemented to ensure a constant GPWM. This is
obtained by generating a sawtooth waveform directly proportional to the input voltage VCC.
Equation 13
VOSCMAX – VOSCMIN = K ⋅ VCC
where K is equal to 0.038. Therefore the PWM gain is also equal to:
Equation 14
GPWM(s)
=
-1--
K
=
const
This means that even if the input voltage changes, the error amplifier does not change its
value to keep the loop in regulation, therefore ensuring a better line regulation and line
transient response.
In summary, the open loop gain can be expressed as:
Equation 15

Example:
Considering RC = 4.7 kΩ, CC = 22 nF and CP = 150 pF, the poles and zeroes of A0 are:
FP1 = 9 Hz
FP2 = 220 kHz
FZ1 = 1.6 kHz
If L = 10 µH, COUT = 330 µF and ESR = 25 mΩ, the poles and zeroes of ALC become:
FPLC = 2.8 kHz
FZESR = 20 kHz
F0 = 44 kHz
Finally R1 = 5.6 kΩ and R2 = 3.3 kΩ.
The gain and phase bode diagrams are plotted respectively in Figure 11 and Figure 12.
