The COMP pin on the TPS92602y-Q1 device is for external compensation, allowing optimization of the loop response for each application. The COMP pin is the output of the internal transconductance amplifier. External resistor R7, along with ceramic capacitors C5 and C6 (see Figure 16 ), connect to the COMP pin to provide poles and zero. The poles and zero, along with the inherent pole and zero in a peak-current-mode control boost converter, determine the closed-loop frequency response. Thhis connection is important to converter stability and transient response. The first step is to calculate the pole and the right half-plane zero of the peak-current-mode boost converter by Equation 39 and Equation 40. To make the loop stable, the loop must have sufficient phase margin at the crossover frequency where the loop gain is 1. To avoid the effect of the right half-plane zero on loop stability, choose a crossover frequency less than 1/5 of f(ZRHP).

where
The loop compensation consists of a series resistor and capacitor (R(COMP) and C(COMP)) from COMP to SGND. R(COMP) sets the crossover frequency and C(COMP) sets the zero frequency of the integrator. For optimum performance, use the following equations:
where
An output capacitor that is an electrolytic capacitor which has large ESR requires a capacitor to cancel the zero of the output capacitor. Equation 45 calculates the value of this capacitor.
