## Relating Converter Transient Response Characteristics to Feedback Control Loop Design

Confusion often surrounds the fundamental relationships of time domain and frequency domain as they pertain to the design of the feedback control portions of power supplies. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the relationships between loop gain crossover frequency, phase margin, and transient response so that the design engineer can achieve the best possible dynamic performance from a given power supply.
