It provides a programmable−delay Power Good function to indicate when the output voltage is out of regulation. V2 Control Method The V2 control method uses a ramp signal generated by the ESR of the output capacitors. This ramp is proportional to the AC current through the main inductor and is offset by the DC output voltage. This control scheme inherently compensates for variation in either line or load conditions, since the ramp signal is generated from the output voltage itself. The V2 method differs from traditional techniques such as voltage mode control, which generates an artificial ramp, and current mode control, which generates a ramp using the inductor current. Figure 19. V2 Control with Slope Compensation COMP Reference Voltage + + PWM RAMP Error Amplifier Error Signal Output Voltage VFB GATE(H) GATE(L) − − Slope Compensation The V2 control method is illustrated in Figure 19. The output voltage generates both the error signal and the ramp signal. Since the ramp signal is simply the output voltage, it is affected by any change in the output, regardless of the origin of that change. The ramp signal also contains the DC portion of the output voltage, allowing the control circuit to drive the main switch from 0% to 100% duty cycle as required. Figure 20. Idealized Waveforms 0.5 V VIN VCOMP VFB GATE(H) STARTUP NORMAL OPERATION tS A variation in line voltage changes the current ramp in the inductor, which causes the V2 control scheme to compensate the duty cycle. Since any variation in inductor current modifies the ramp signal, as in current mode control, the V2 control scheme offers the same advantages in line transient response. A variation in load current will affect the output voltage, modifying the ramp signal. A load step immediately changes the state of the comparator output, which controls the main switch. The comparator response time and the transition speed of the main switch determine the load transient response. Unlike traditional control methods, the reaction time to the output load step is not related to the crossover frequency of the error signal loop. The error signal loop can have a low crossover frequency, since the transient response is handled by the ramp signal loop. The main purpose of this ‘slow’ feedback loop is to provide DC accuracy. Noise immunity is significantly improved, since the error amplifier bandwidth can be rolled off at a low frequency. Enhanced noise immunity improves remote sensing of the output voltage, since the noise associated with long feedback traces can be effectively filtered. Line and load regulation are drastically improved because there are two independent control loops. A voltage mode controller relies on the change in the error signal to compensate for a deviation in either line or load voltage. This change in the error signal causes the output voltage to change corresponding to the gain of the error amplifier, which is normally specified as line and load regulation. A current mode controller maintains a fixed error signal during line transients, since the slope of the ramp signal changes in this case. However, regulation of load transients still requires a change in the error signal. The V2 method of control maintains a fixed error signal for both line and load variation, since the ramp signal is affected by both line and load. The stringent load transient requirements of modern microprocessors require the output capacitors to have very low ESR. The resulting shallow slope in the output ripple can lead to pulse width jitter and variation caused by both random and synchronous noise. A ramp waveform generated in the oscillator is added to the ramp signal from the output voltage |
