8.1.3 Capacitor Recommendation

The TPS7A90 is designed to be stable using low equivalent series resistance (ESR) ceramic capacitors at the input, output, and noise-reduction pin. Multilayer ceramic capacitors are the industry standard for these types of applications and are recommended, but must be used with good understanding of their limitations. Ceramic capacitors that employ X7R-, X5R-, and COG-rated dielectric materials provide relatively good capacitive stability across temperature, whereas the use of Y5V-rated capacitors is discouraged precisely because the capacitance varies so widely. In all cases, ceramic capacitors vary a great deal with operating voltage and temperature and the design engineer must be aware of these characteristics. As a rule of thumb, ceramic capacitors are recommended to be derated by 50%. The input and output capacitors recommended herein account for a capacitance derating of 50%.
