Optional virtual ESR network

A standard COT loop requires a high ESR output capacitor to generate a proper PWM

signal.

The A6984 architecture naturally supports output ceramic capacitors with the negligible

ESR generating an internal voltage ramp proportional to the inductor current to emulate

a high ESR output capacitor for the proper PWM comparator operation.

The control scheme is designed to guarantee the minimum signal for the PWM comparator

cycle-by-cycle operation with controlled duty cycle jitter, that is a natural duty cycle dithering

that helps to reduce the switching noise emission for EMC.

If required, an optional external virtual ESR network (see Figure 14 can be designed to

generate a higher signal for the PWM comparator operation and remove the duty cycle

dithering. This network requires the external voltage divider to set the output voltage and

supports the LNM and LCM device operation.
