Abstract

A method is provided for configuring a controller for a voltage regulator system having an output filter response set by an inductance (L) and a capacitance (C). The method includes applying one or more pulses of known on-time and off-time to the voltage regulator system, and taking measurements of the voltage regulator system in response to the one or more pulses of known on-time and off-time. The method further includes constructing a model of the output filter response of the voltage regulator system based on the measurements, and setting one or more control loop parameters of the controller based on the model of the output filter response.
