As with the generic equation, G
take into account the limited bandwidth of the error amplifier.
The result is:
The total control loop transfer function H is equal to the power
stage transfer function multiplied by the error amplifier trans-
fer function.
The bandwidth and phase margin can be read graphically
from Bode plots of H

The bandwidth of this example circuit is 59kHz, with a phase
margin of 60°.
EFFICIENCY CALCULATIONS
The following is a sample calculation.
A reasonable estimation of the efficiency of a switching buck
controller can be obtained by adding together the Output
Power (P
The Output Power (P
design is (1.2V * 4A) = 4.8W. The Total Power (P
an efficiency calculation to complement the design, is shown
below.
The majority of the power losses are due to low and high-side
of MOSFET’s losses. The losses in any MOSFET are group
