= 20 kHz.
Select the double zero location for the Type III compensation network at the output filter double pole at 3.05 kHz.
Select the double pole location for the Type III compensation network at the output capacitor ESR zero at
28.2 kHz.
The amplifier gain at the crossover frequency of 20 kHz is determined by the reciprocal of the modulator gain
AMOD at the crossover frequency from equation (22).
