6.2Closed-Loop Performance

The TPS40090 uses peak current-mode control. Figure 10 shows the bode plots at 100 A of

load current, where no droop function is implemented. The crossover frequency is at 89 kHz with phase margin of 40°.

6.3Output Ripple and Noise

Figure 11 shows typical output noise where VIN=12 V, and IOUT=100A. The output ripple is less than 10 mV.
