Body Braking
In a conventional synchronous buck converter, the minimum time required to reduce the current in the inductor in
response to a load step decrease is;
The slew rate of the inductor current can be significantly increased by turning off the synchronous rectifier in
response to a load step decrease. The switch node voltage is then forced to decrease until conduction of the
synchronous rectifier’s body diode occurs. This increases the voltage across the inductor from Vo to Vo +
V
decrease is now;
Since the voltage drop in the body diode is often higher than output voltage, the inductor current slew rate can be
increased by 2X or more. This patent pending technique is referred to as “Body Braking
through the “Body Braking
below 91% of the VDAC voltage this comparator turns off the low side gate driver.
Lossless Average Inductor Current Sensing
Inductor current can be sensed by connecting a resistor and a capacitor in parallel with the inductor and measuring
the voltage across the capacitor, as shown in Figure 5. The equation of the sensing network is,
Usually the resistor Rcs and capacitor Ccs are chosen so that the time constant of Rcs and Ccs equals the time
constant of the inductor which is the inductance L over the inductor DCR (R
voltage across Ccs is proportional to the current through L, and the sense circuit can be treated as if only a sense
resistor with the value of R
inductor DC current, but affects the AC component of the inductor current.
