JAJSVN8 November 2024 TLV61220A
PRODUCTION DATA
For the output capacitor C2, it is recommended to use small ceramic capacitors placed as close as possible to the VOUT and GND pins of the IC. If, for any reason, the application requires the use of large capacitors which can not be placed close to the IC, the use of a small ceramic capacitor with an capacitance value of around 2.2μF in parallel to the large one is recommended. This small capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the VOUT and GND pins of the IC.
A minimum capacitance value of 4.7μF should be used, 10 μF are recommended. If the inductor value exceeds 4.7μH, the value of the output capacitance value needs to be half the inductance value or higher for stability reasons, see Equation 5.
The TLV61220A is not sensitive to the ESR in terms of stability. Using low ESR capacitors, such as ceramic capacitors, is recommended anyway to minimize output voltage ripple. If heavy load changes are expected, the output capacitor value should be increased to avoid output voltage drops during fast load transients.
