Input Capacitors

A power supply input typically has a relatively high source impedance at the switching frequency. Good-quality input capacitors are necessary to limit the input ripple voltage. As mentioned earlier, dual-channel interleaved operation significantly reduces the input ripple amplitude. In general, the ripple current splits between the input capacitors based on the relative impedance of the capacitors at the switching frequency.

  1. Select the input capacitors with sufficient voltage and RMS ripple current ratings.
  2. Use Equation 39 to calculate the input capacitor RMS ripple current assuming a worst-case duty-cycle operating point of 50%.
    Equation 39. GUID-7442E483-E4A2-48E0-9CFC-E2F25CF144B2-low.gif
  3. Use Equation 40 to find the required input capacitance.
    Equation 40. GUID-26362744-5044-488E-9845-397A6D54921B-low.gif

    where

    • ΔVIN is the input peak-to-peak ripple voltage specification.
    • RESR is the input capacitor ESR.
  4. Recognizing the voltage coefficient of ceramic capacitors, select two 10-µF, 50-V, X7R, 1210 ceramic input capacitors. Place these capacitors adjacent to the power MOSFETs. See GUID-00605502-1909-4266-BF8A-6B4CC165C159.html#GUID-00605502-1909-4266-BF8A-6B4CC165C159 for more details.
  5. Use four 10-nF, 50-V, X7R, 0603 ceramic capacitors near the high-side MOSFET to supply the high di/dt current during MOSFET switching transitions. Such capacitors offer high self-resonant frequency (SRF) and low effective impedance above 100 MHz. The result is lower power loop parasitic inductance, thus minimizing switch-node voltage overshoot and ringing for lower conducted and radiated EMI signature.
