Abstract :
This paper explores the potential and the pitfall of digital compensation in a voltage-mode DC-DC converter. A FPGA-based synchronous DC-DC buck converter was used to implement the proposed two digital compensating schemes. One was to use a pair of complex compensating zeros and the other was to use a positive pole. Small-signal models of converters with digital control will be used to illustrate some basic concepts. Complex-zero compensation may improve the control loop gain characteristics but positive-pole compensation is infeasible.
