Control Loop Cookbook Lloyd H. Dixon INTRODUCTION: KEA(S) Error amplifier with compensation Switching power supplies use closed-loop KMOD Pulse width modulator feedback to achieve design objectives for line and load regulation and dynamic response. KPWR Power switching topology Fortunately, the closed-loop systems used in KLC(S) Output power filter switching power supplies are usually not very com- plicated, permitting the use of simple analytical KFB Feedback techniques to achieve loop stabilization. A simpli- Although the pulse width modulator and power fied version of the Nyquist stability criteria can be switching circuit are really not linear elements, their used because unity gain crossover occurs only state-space averaged linear equivalents can once in the gain vs. frequency characteristic.
