SLVS642F April 2006 – January 2024 TPS5420
PRODUCTION DATA
For this design example, a single 100-μF output capacitor is chosen for C3. The calculated RMS ripple current is 143 mA and the maximum ESR required is 88 mΩ. A capacitor that meets these requirements is a AVX TPSD107M010R0080, rated at 10 V with a maximum ESR of 80 mΩ and a ripple current rating of 1.369 A. This capacitor results in a peak-to-peak output ripple of 26 mV using equation 10. An additional small 0.1-μF ceramic bypass capacitor may also used, but is not included in this design.
Other capacitor types can be used with the TPS5420, depending on the needs of the application.
