PRODUCTION DATA
Use two 10-µF, 50-V, X7R-dielectric ceramic capacitors in 1210 case size connected symmetrically from the VIN1 and VIN2 pins to PGND as close as possible to the module. More specifically, these capacitors appear from the drain of the internal high-side MOSFET to the source of the low-side MOSFET, effectively connecting from the positive input voltage to the negative output voltage terminals.
The sum of the input and output voltages, VIN + |–VOUT|, is the effective applied voltage across the capacitors. The total effective capacitance at 25°C and input voltages of 12 V and 24 V (corresponding to applied voltages of 24 V and 36 V) is approximately 12 µF and 8 µF, respectively. Check the capacitance versus voltage derating curve in the capacitor data sheet.
Use an additional 10-µF, 50-V capacitor directly across the input. This capacitor is designated as CIN3 and connects across the VIN+ and VIN– terminals as shown in Figure 9-10.
