A unified model for current-programmed converters

A unified model is established for a current-programmed power converter, which is both a modification and an extension of familiar models. Inclusion of the sampling effect allows the presence of an additional pole ω_p in the current-loop gain to be derived. The resulting final double-slope asymptote is fixed in position, and the crossover frequency cannot exceed half the switching frequency. A stability parameter, Q_s, determines the additional pole and describes the degree of peaking in the closed-loop transfer function. Experimental verification employs an analog signal injection technique
