average current mode control), this current sensing
method is sufficient without time constant matching
requirement.
In the current mode control as implemented in SC2447,
voltage ripple on C

operation. In general, smaller V
to-noise ratio and more noise sensitive operation. Larger
sensitive operation. A good engineering compromise is:
It is necessary to match the following time constants to
equalize the ripple.
For example, L = 1µH and R

Scaling the Current Limit
Over-current is handled differently in the SC2447
depending on the direction of the inductor current. If
the differential sense voltage between CS+ and CS-
exceeds +50mV, the PWM signal (GDH) will go low. The
MOSFET driver will turn off the top MOSFET and turn on
the bottom MOSFET, to limit the inductor current. This
+50mV is the cycle-by-cycle peak current limit when the
load is drawing current from the converter. There is no
cycle-by-cycle current limit when the inductor current flows
in the reverse direction.
In the circuit of Figure 13, the equivalent inductor current
limit is set according to
when the load is sourcing current from the converter. If
R
allows the user to scale the equivalent current limit with
the same R
