Unified modeling and measurement of current-programmed converters

A unified model is established for a current-programmed converter, which is both a modification and an extension of familiar models. Inclusion of the sampling effect allows the presence of an additional pole in the current-loop gain to be inferred. The resulting final double-slope asymptote is fixed in position, and the crossover frequency cannot exceed half the switching frequency. A new stability parameter, Q _s, determines the additional pole and describes the degree of peaking in the closed-loop transfer functions. Experimental verification uses an analog signal injection technique
