Modeling and Loop Compensation Design of
Switching Mode Power Supplies
Henry J. Zhang
Introduction Identifying The Problem TodayвЂ™s electronic systems are becoming more and more
complex, with an increasing number of power rails and
supplies. To achieve optimum power solution density,
reliability and cost, often system designers need to design
their own power solutions, instead of just using commercial power supply bricks. Designing and optimizing high
performance switching mode power supplies is becoming
a more frequent and challenging task. A well-designed switching mode power supply (SMPS)
must be quiet, both electrically and acoustically. An undercompensated system may result in unstable operations.
Typical symptoms of an unstable power supply include:
audible noise from the magnetic components or ceramic
capacitors, jittering in the switching waveforms, oscillation
of output voltage, overheating of power FETs and so on. Power supply loop compensation design is usually
viewed as a difficult task, especially for inexperienced
supply designers. Practical compensation design typically
involves numerous iterations on the value adjustment
of the compensation components. This is not only time
consuming, but is also inaccurate in a complicated
system whose supply bandwidth and stability margin …

Sub-Milliohm DCR Current Sensing with
Accurate Multiphase Current Sharing for
High Current Power Supplies
Muthu Subramanian, Tuan Nguyen and Theo Phillips The increasing functional complexity of electronic devices, combined with the desire for
higher microprocessor computational speed and the quest for eco-friendly electronics,
places stringent requirements on power supplies. High current supplies are expected
to operate at top efficiency. In order to minimize conduction losses, power supplies
are placed closer to the load, and multiple power stages are used on the same board.
Individual power stages have had to shrink in size to fit the available board area. To
achieve the best performance per board area, controllers must work with external
power stages such as power blocks, DrMOS or external gate drivers with MOSFETs.
