Free-Running, Constant-On-Time PWM
Controller with Input Feed-Forward
The Quick-PWM control architecture is a pseudo-fixed-fre-
quency, constant-on-time on-demand PWM with voltage
feed-forward (Figure 2). This architecture relies on the out-
put filter capacitor’s ESR to act as a current-sense resistor,
so the output ripple voltage provides the PWM ramp sig-
nal. The control algorithm is simple: the high-side switch
on-time is determined solely by a one-shot whose pulse
