The device is designed to be used with a wide variety of LC filters. Use as little output capacitance as possible to keep cost and size down. Choose the output capacitor(s), COUT, with care because COUT directly affects the steady-state output voltage ripple, loop stability, and the voltage over/undershoot during load current transients.
The output voltage ripple is essentially composed of two parts. One is caused by the inductor current ripple going through the ESR of the output capacitors:
The other is caused by the inductor current ripple charging and discharging the output capacitors:
The two components in the voltage ripple are not in phase, so the actual peak-to-peak ripple is smaller than the sum of the two peaks.
Output capacitance is usually limited by transient performance specifications if the system requires tight voltage regulation in the presence of large current steps and fast slew rates. When a fast large load transient happens, output capacitors provide the required charge before the inductor current can slew to the appropriate level. The initial output voltage step is equal to the load current step multiplied by the ESR. VOUT continues to droop until the control loop response increases or decreases the inductor current to supply the load. To maintain a small over- or under-shoot during a transient, small ESR and large capacitance are desired. But these also come with higher cost and size. Thus, the motivation is to seek a fast control loop response to reduce the output voltage deviation.
For a given input and output requirement, the following inequality gives an approximation for an absolute minimum output cap required:
Along with this for the same requirement, the max ESR should be calculated as per the following inequality
where
A general guide line for COUT range is that COUT should be larger than the minimum required output capacitance calculated by Equation 19, and smaller than 10 times the minimum required output capacitance or 1 mF. In applications with VOUT less than 3.3 V, it is critical that low ESR output capacitors are selected. This will limit potential output voltage overshoots as the input voltage falls below the device normal operating range. To optimize the transient behavior a feed-forward capacitor could be added in parallel with the upper feedback resistor. For this design example, three 47-µF,10-V, X7R ceramic capacitors are used in parallel.
