After determining R
calculate the droop resistances R
R
The effectiveness of the R
coupling coefficient between the NTC thermistor and the
inductor. The NTC thermistor should be placed in close
proximity of the inductor.
To verify whether the NTC network successfully compensates
the DCR change over temperature, one can apply full load
current, wait for the thermal steady state, and see how much
the output voltage deviates from the initial voltage reading.
Good thermal compensation can limit the drift to less than
2mV. If the output voltage decreases when the temperature
increases, that ratio between the NTC thermistor value and
the rest of the resistor divider network has to be increased.
Following the evaluation board value and layout of NTC
placement will minimize the engineering time.
The current sensing traces should be routed directly to the
inductor pads for accurate DCR voltage drop measurement.
However, due to layout imperfection, the calculated R
may still need slight adjustment to achieve optimum load line
slope. It is recommended to adjust R
has achieved thermal equilibrium at full load. For example, if
the max current is 20A, one should apply 20A load current
and look for 42mV output voltage droop. If the voltage droop
is 40mV, the new value of R
For the best accuracy, the effective resistance on the DFB
and VSUM pins should be identical so that the bias current
of the droop amplifier does not cause an offset voltage. The
effective resistance on the VSUM pin is the parallel of R
