Output Capacitor Selection

The output capacitor value depends on the total series resistance of the LED string, rD, and the switching frequency, fSW. Equation 18 calculates the capacitance required for the target LED ripple current.

For applications where the converter supports pixel beam or matrix LED loads, additional design considerations influence the selection of output capacitor. The size of the output capacitor depends on the slew-rate control of the LED bypass switches and must be carefully selected while considering the overshoot current created by the dv/dt of the bypass switch.

When choosing the output capacitors, it is important to consider the ESR and ESL characteristics because they directly impact the LED current ripple. Ceramic capacitors are the best choice due to the following:

  • Low ESR
  • High ripple current rating
  • Long lifetime
  • Good temperature performance

With ceramic capacitor technology, it is important to consider the derating factors associated with higher temperature and DC bias operating conditions. TI recommends an X7R dielectric with a voltage rating greater than maximum LED stack voltage.
