is the equivalent series resistance of the

A troublesome feature in boost mode is the right-half plane

The loop gain is typically rolled off before the RHP zero
frequency.
A simple Type I compensation network can be incorporated
to stabilize the loop, but at a cost of reduced bandwidth and
slower transient response. To ensure proper phase margin
using Type I compensation, the loop must be crossed over
a decade before the LC double pole. Referring to Figure
5, the unity-gain frequency of the error amplifier utilizing
Type I compensation is given by:

Most applications demand an improved transient response
to allow a smaller output filter capacitor. To achieve a higher
bandwidth, Type III compensation is required, providing
two zeros to compensate for the double-pole response of
the output filter. Referring to Figure 6, the location of the
poles and zeros are given by:
