Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS543C20
Hello,
I am using two TPS543C20A converters in a two-phase configuration. I am using the TPS543C20_Calculator. The calculator is not set up for multi-phase converter analysis. As a workaround, I used the standard, equivalent single phase model of the two phase converter.
1. Single phase equivalent inductor is 1/2 the two phase inductor
2. Single phase converter switching frequency is double the two phase switching frequency.
3. Single phase equivalent converter input voltage is 1/2 the two phase converter input voltage.
My question is the following: Are these modifications sufficient for an accurate loop gain analysis? Is there something I missed.
As to the loop gain results, only the LC corner frequency and outer voltage loop gain crossover frequency is calculated and displayed. What about the current loop crossover frequency? How can I check that the inner current loop has a higher crossover frequency than the voltage loop?
To lower switching frequency I reduce RDAMP. Does this action reduce the modulator gain and then reduce the outer voltage loop frequency response?
V/r,
