Detailed Design Procedure

When the switch is enabled, the output capacitors must be charged up from 0 V to the set value (3.3 V in this example). This charge arrives in the form of inrush current. Inrush current can be calculated using Equation 2:

Equation 2. Inrush Current = C × dV/dt

where

  • C = output capacitance
  • dV = output voltage
  • dt = rise time

The TPS22966-Q1 offers adjustable rise time for VOUT. This feature allows the user to control the inrush current during turnon. The appropriate rise time can be calculated using Table 3 and the inrush current equation.

Equation 3. 400 mA = 22 μF × 3.3 V/dt
Equation 4. dt = 181.5 μs

To ensure an inrush current of less than 400 mA, choose a CT value that will yield a rise time of more than 181.5 μs. See the oscilloscope captures in for an example of how the CT capacitor can be used to reduce inrush current.
