How To Solve Frequency Jitter In Constant On-Time POLs With A Ripple Injection Circuit


The purpose of this article is to walk through the steps of implementing a ripple injection circuit for constant on-time POLs. It covers how to connect the circuit and then how to calculate the values used in the circuit. Frequency jitter can be caused by a number of things such as noise injection into the voltage sense lines from outside sources, to very low ripple current in the output ind... » read more

Power Stage Selection Considerations For High-Current Voltage Regulators


There are several key things to consider when selecting a power stage for high-current voltage regulators: What area does the power stage need to fit in? What is the continuous output current? What is the maximum peak current? This should not exceed the peak current rating of the power stage. What is the power loss for sustained output current? This can be calculated... » read more
