capacitors, choose a capacitor with less than 50mΩ ESR.
Rectifier Diode
Use a Schottky diode as the rectifier to conduct current when the High-Side Power Switch is off. The Schottky
diode must have current rating higher than the maximum output current and a reverse voltage rating higher
than the maximum input voltage.
Stability Compensation
The feedback loop of the IC is stabilized by the components at the COMP pin, as shown in figure below.
NOTE ①: CCOMP2 is needed only for high ESR output capacitor
The DC loop gain of the system is determined by the following equation:
