LM70880-Q1: LM70880-Q1 EVM current sense circuit

Part Number: LM70880-Q1

Tool/software:

Hi

I saw R12 and C22 on the current sense circuit from EVM as below.

What is the purpose of this circuit ?

Thanks

  • Hi Hank,

    The resistor is for inductor current sensing that is utilized for Peak Current Mode Control. You can see that in the functional block diagram as well:

    The capacitor is just there for filtering. 

    Thanks,
