System stability
The boost section of the PM6600 is a fixed frequency, peak current-mode converter. During
normal operation, a minimum voltage selection circuit compares all the voltage drops across
the active current generators and provides the minimum one to the error amplifier. The
output voltage of the error amplifier determines the inductor peak current in order to keep its
inverting input equal to the reference voltage (400 mV typ). The compensation network
consists of a simple RC series (R

conditions.
Loop compensation
The compensation network can be quickly calculated using equations 4 through 9. Once

order to get the optimal dynamic performance from the application.
The first parameter to be fixed is the switching frequency. Normally, a high switching
frequency allows reducing the size of the inductor but increases the switching losses and
negatively affects the dynamic response of the converter. For most of applications, the fixed
value (660 kHz) represents a good trade-off between power dissipation and dynamic
response, allowing to save an external resistor at the same time. In low-profile applications,
the inductor value is often kept low to reduce the number of turns; an inductor value in the
4.7 µH-15 µH range is a good starting choice.
Even if the loop bandwidth of the boost converter should be chosen as large as possible, it
should be set to 20% of the switching frequency, taking care not to exceed the CCM-mode
right half-plane zero (RHPZ).

Note that, the lower the inductor value (or the lower the switching frequency) the higher the
bandwidth can be achieved. The output capacitor is directly involved in the loop of the boost
converter and must be large enough to avoid excessive output voltage drop in case of a
sudden line transition from the maximum to the minimum input voltages (ΔV
exceed 50-100 mV):
