PRODUCTION DATA
For the best output and input voltage filtering, TI recommends X5R or X7R ceramic capacitors. The input bulk capacitor minimizes input voltage ripple, suppresses input voltage spikes, and provides a stable system rail for the device. TI recommends a 10μF or larger input capacitor. Having two in parallel further improves the input voltage ripple filtering, minimizing noise coupling into adjacent circuits. The voltage rating of the cap must also be taken into consideration, and must provide the required 5μF minimum effective capacitance after DC bias derating.
In addition to the bulk input cap, a smaller cap must be placed directly from the VIN pin to the PGND pin to minimize input loop parasitic inductance, thereby minimizing the high frequency noise of the device. The input cap placement affects the output noise, so care needs to be taken in placing both the bulk cap and bypass caps as shown in Section 7.4.2. Table 7-7 lists recommended input capacitors.
