Application information

It must be taken into account that in some MLCC the capacitance decreases when the

operating voltage is near the rated voltage. In Table 7 some MLCC suitable for most of

applications are listed.

8.1.3

Output capacitor selection

Using tantalum or electrolytic capacitors, the selection is made referring to ESR and voltage

rating rather than by a specific capacitance value.

The output capacitor has to satisfy the output voltage ripple requirements. At a given

switching frequency, small inductor values are useful to reduce the size of the choke but

increase the inductor current ripple. Thus, to reduce the output voltage ripple a low ESR

capacitor is required.

To reduce jitter noise between different switching regulators in the system, it is preferable to

work with an output voltage ripple greater than 25 mV.

As far as it concerning the load transient requirements, the Equivalent Series Resistance

(ESR) of the output capacitor must satisfy the following relationship:

Equation 36

where VRIPPLE is the maximum tolerable ripple voltage.

In addition, the ESR must be high enough high to meet stability requirements. The output

capacitor zero must be lower than the switching frequency:
