  Constant Current Control for DC-DC Converters »

  Vicors VI-200/VI-J00 and Maxi, Mini and Micro family DC-DCconverters are voltage regulating devices, but their wide trimrange makes it possible to use them as efficient high-power currentsources. Current regulation can be implemented through the additionof an external control loop and current-sense resistor. Such adesign must take into account the power limitations of the DC-DCconverter and must ensure the stability of the converters voltageloop. In addition to these considerations, this application notecovers compensation of the external current-control loop and adesign example for a simple battery charger.
