Output Capacitor Selection

The output capacitor, designated COUT, filters the inductor ripple current and provides a source of charge for transient load conditions. A wide range of output capacitors may be used with the LM21215A that provide various advantages. The best performance is typically obtained using ceramic, SP or OSCON type chemistries. Typical trade-offs are that the ceramic capacitor provides extremely low ESR to reduce the output ripple voltage and noise spikes, while the SP and OSCON capacitors provide a large bulk capacitance in a small volume for transient loading conditions.

When selecting an output capacitor, the two performance characteristics to consider are the output voltage ripple and load transient response. Approximate the output voltage ripple by using Equation 7.

Equation 7. LM21215A q_delta_Vout_nosb87.gif

where

  • ΔVOUT is the peak-to-peak output voltage ripple
  • RESR is the effective series resistance (ESR) of the output capacitor
  • FSW is the switching frequency
  • COUT is the effective output capacitance

The amount of output voltage ripple is application specific. A general recommendation is to keep the output ripple less than 1% of the rated output voltage. Keep in mind that ceramic capacitors are sometimes preferred because they have very low ESR. However, depending on package and voltage rating of the capacitor, the effective in-circuit capacitance can drop significantly with applied voltage. The output capacitor selection also affects the output voltage droop during a load transient. The peak deviation of the output voltage during a load transient is dependent on many factors. An approximation of the transient dip ignoring loop bandwidth is obtained using Equation 8:

Equation 8. LM21215A q_Vdroop_nosb87.gif

where

  • COUT is the minimum required output capacitance
  • LF is the filter inductance
  • VDROOP is the output voltage deviation ignoring loop bandwidth considerations
  • ΔIOUT-STEP is the load step change
  • RESR is the output capacitor ESR
  • VIN is the input voltage
  • VOUT is the output voltage setpoint

Three 100-µF, 6.3-V ceramic capacitors with X5R dielectric and 1210 footprint are selected here based on a review of the capacitor's tolerance and voltage coefficient to meet output ripple specification.
