9.2.1.2.6 Output Capacitor

Output capacitor also should have enough ripple current rating to absorb output switching ripple current. The output capacitor RMS current is given:

Equation 7. BQ24725A eq7_lusa79.gif

The BQ24725A has internal loop compensator. To get good loop stability, the resonant frequency of the output inductor and output capacitor should be designed between 10 kHz and 20 kHz. The preferred ceramic capacitor is 25V X7R or X5R for output capacitor. 10-20μF capacitance is suggested for a typical of 3-4A charging current. Place the capacitors after charging current sensing resistor to get the best charge current regulation accuracy.

Ceramic capacitors show a dc-bias effect. This effect reduces the effective capacitance when a dc-bias voltage is applied across a ceramic capacitor, as on the output capacitor of a charger. The effect may lead to a significant capacitance drop, especially for high output voltages and small capacitor packages. See the manufacturer's data sheet about the performance with a dc bias voltage applied. It may be necessary to choose a higher voltage rating or nominal capacitance value in order to get the required value at the operating point.
