As an example, assume that the capacitance between the

VSW node and a high impedance pin node is 0.1pF, and that

the high impedance node in question exhibits a capaci-

tance of 1pF to ground. Also assume a “typical” 36VIN to

5VOUT application. Due to the large voltage excursion at

the VSW node, this will couple a 3.5V(!) transient to the

high impedance pin, causing abnormal operation. An

explicit 100pF capacitor added to the node will reduce the

amplitude of the disturbance to more like 35mV (although

settling

time will increase).

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION

Specific pin recommendations are as follows:

SHDN: If unused, add a 100pF capacitor to ground.

SYNC: Ground if unused.

VC: Add a capacitor directly to ground in addition to the

explicit compensation network. A value of one-tenth of

the main compensation capacitor is recommended, up

to a maximum of 100pF.

FB: Assuming the VC pin is handled properly, this pin

usually requires no explicit capacitor of its own, but

keep this node physically small to minimize stray

capacitance.
