MAX1908/MAX8724

The crossover frequency is given by:

The CCI loop dominant compensation pole:

where the GMI amplifier output impedance, R

OGMI

=

10MΩ.

To calculate the CCI loop compensation pole, C

CI

:

GMI = 1µA/mV

GM

OUT

= 3.33A/V

R

OGMI

= 10MΩ

f = 400kHz

Choose crossover frequency f

CO_CI

to be 1/5th the

MAX1908/MAX8724 switching frequency:

Solving for C

CI

, C

CI

= 2nF.

To be conservative, set C

CI

= 10nF, which sets the

crossover frequency at:

The compensation pole, f

P_CI

is set at:

CCS Loop Definitions

Compensation of the CCS loop depends on the parame-
ters and components shown in Figure 9. C

CS

is the CCS

loop compensation capacitor. A

CSS

is the internal gain of

the current-sense amplifier. RS1 is the input current-
sense resistor, RS1 = 10mΩ. R

OGMS

is the equivalent

output impedance of the GMS amplifier ≥ 10MΩ. GMS is
