and gain) to work with very low ESR output capacitors such as multi-layer ceramic capacitor (MLCC). The role of

such network is to sense and scale the current ripple component of the output inductor current information and

then use it in conjunction with the voltage feedback signal to achieve loop stability of the converter.

generated is inversed and averaged by this integrator. The AC information is superimposed onto otherwise DC

information and forms a reference voltage at the input of the PWM comparator. As long as the integrator time

constant is much larger than the inverse of the loop crossover frequency, the AC component is negligible.

each cycle when the current level falls below the loop demand (see Figure 20).
