CCI Loop Compensation
The simplified schematic in Figure 6 is sufficient to
describe the operation of the MAX8730 when the bat-
tery current loop (CCI) is in control. Since the output
capacitor’s impedance has little effect on the response
of the current loop, only a simple single pole is required
to compensate this loop. A
CSI
is the internal gain of the
current-sense amplifier. RS2 is the charge-current-
sense resistor (30mΩ). R
OGMI
is the equivalent output
impedance of the GMI amplifier, which is greater than
10MΩ. GMI is the charge-current amplifier transcon-
ductance = 1µA/mV. GM
OUT
is the DC-DC converter
transconductance = 2.22A/V.
The loop transfer function is given by:
that describes a single-pole system. Since:
the loop-transfer function simplifies to:
The crossover frequency is given by:
For stability, choose a crossover frequency lower than
1/10 of the switching frequency:
Values for C
CI
greater than 10 times the minimum value
may slow down the current-loop response. Choosing
C
CI
= 10nF yields a crossover frequency of 15.9kHz.

quency response using the values calculated above.
