DC-DC converter error amplifier output
I am new to DC-DC converter electronics. I was wondering what the output of the error amplifier/compensator looks like.
Is the output of the compensator being driven to the Vref value set on the non-...

DCDC booster oscillation because of small drops of input voltage
I'm stuck with this DCDC booster design that shows a bad oscillation output when a little voltage drop is present at the input.
I have already tried to change the inductance to 4.7uH (actually, the ...

Why is it easier to make a boost converter stable by feeding back a very small amount of output?
The image below is about peak current mode control for a boost converter. Someone said that it's easier to make it stable by feedback a very small of output like 1/10 Vout (or R2 << R1). ...

Output voltage not stable - What is compensation with respect to DC-DC (buck converter)?
EDITS:
Input voltage range: 24V to 48V.
Changing the load current from 0.38A to 1.018A increases the mean output voltage from 12.779V to 13.26V. The supply should be producing 12.5V.
I'm using this ...

How can gain and phase margin be used to assess stability of SMPCs as for most of the cases (except buck), they always have a Right Hand Zero?
I was going through this Operational Amplifiers, Theory and Practice by James Roberge. On Page 146, it is mentioned that for systems that have negative feedback at low or mid frequencies and that have ...

Slope compensation of MAX17498
I want to use MAX17498 in boost mode.
I have a problem setting the slope compensation. The slope (as I understand) is the gradient of the inductor's current ramp. The unit is [A/s] or [A/us]. However,...

Why is this Type I compensator phase not 270 degrees?
This is a Type I compensator with a pole at origin. The transfer function between \$V_{in}\$ and \$V_{out}\$ is as follows:
$$ \frac{V_{out}}{V_{in}}= -\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}+R_{2}} \frac{1}{s (R_{1}|| ...
