Function Description
Component Selection
Setting the Output Voltage
The output voltage is set using a resistive voltage
divider from the output voltage to FB pin.The voltage
divider divides the output voltage down to the
feedback voltage by the ratio:
Where VFB is the feedback voltage and VOUT is the
output voltage.Thus the output voltage is:
Where VOUT is the output voltage, VIN is the input
voltage, fS is the switching frequency, and ∆IL is the
peak-to-peak inductor ripple current.
Choose an inductor that will not saturate under the
maximum inductor peak current. The peak inductor
current can be calculated by:
Where ILOAD is the load current.
The choice of which style inductor to use mainly
depends on the price vs. size requirements and any
EMI requirements.
Optional Schottky Diode
R2 can be as high as 100kΩ, but a typical value is

frequency. For simplification, the output ripple can be
approximated to:
The worst-case condition occurs at VIN = 2VOUT,where
IC1 = ILOAD/2. For simplification, choose the input
capacitor whose RMS current rating greater than half
of the maximum load current.
The input capacitor can be electrolytic, tantalum or
ceramic. When using electrolytic or tantalum
capacitors, a small, high quality ceramic capacitor, i.e.
0.1μF, should be placed as close to the IC as possible.
When using ceramic capacitors, make sure that they
have enough capacitance to provide sufficient charge
to prevent excessive voltage ripple at input. The input
voltage ripple for low ESR capacitors can be
estimated by:
Where C1 is the input capacitance value.
Output Capacitor
The output capacitor is required to maintain the DC
output voltage. Ceramic, tantalum, or low ESR
electrolytic capacitors are recommended. Low ESR
capacitors are preferred to keep the output voltage
ripple low. The output voltage ripple can be estimated
by:
Where C2 is the output capacitance value and RESR is
the equivalent series resistance (ESR) value of the
output capacitor.
In the case of ceramic capacitors, the impedance at
the switching frequency is dominated by the
capacitance. The output voltage ripple is mainly
caused by the capacitance. For simplification, the
output voltage ripple can be estimated by:
The characteristics of the output capacitor also affect
the stability of the regulation system. The TD1519 can
be optimized for a wide range of capacitance and ESR
values.
Compensation Components
TD1519 employs current mode control for easy
compensation and fast transient response. The
system stability and transient response are controlled
through the COMP pin. COMP pin is the output of the
internal transconductance error amplifier. A series
capacitor-resistor combination sets a pole-zero
combination to control the characteristics of the control
system.
The DC gain of the voltage feedback loop is given by:
Where AVEA is the error amplifier voltage gain;GCS is
the current sense transconductance and RLOAD is the
load resistor value.
The system has two poles of importance. One is due
to the compensation capacitor (C3) and the output
resistor of the error amplifier, and the other is due to
the output capacitor and the load resistor. These poles
are located at:
Where GEA is the error amplifier transconductance.

The system has one zero of importance, due to the
compensation capacitor (C3) and the compensation
resistor (R3). This zero is located at:
Determine the C3 value by the following equation:
The system may have another zero of importance, if
the output capacitor has a large capacitance and/or a
high ESR value. The zero,due to the ESR and
capacitance of the output capacitor, is located at:
Where R3 is the compensation resistor.
3. Determine if the second compensation capacitor
(C6) is required. It is required if the ESR zero of the
output capacitor is located at less than half of the
switching frequency, or the following relationship is
valid:
If this is the case, then add the second compensation
In this case (as shown in Figure 14), a third pole set by capacitor (C6) to set the pole fP3 at the location of the
the compensation capacitor (C6) and the
ESR zero. Determine the C6 value by the equation:
compensation resistor (R3) is used to compensate the
effect of the ESR zero on the loop gain. This pole is

2. Choose the compensation capacitor (C3) to achieve
the desired phase margin. For applications with typical
inductor values, setting the compensation zero, fZ1,
below one-forth of the crossover frequency provides
sufficient phase margin.
