PRODUCTION DATA
When using ceramic output filer capacitors, the recommended LC resonant frequency should be no more than 7 kHz. Since the output inductor is already selected at 68 μH, this limits the minimum output capacitor value to:
The minimum capacitor value is calculated to be 7.6 μF. For this circuit a larger value of capacitor will yield better transient response. Two output capacitors are used for C3 and C4 with a value of 47 uF each. It is important to note that the actual capacitance of ceramic capacitors decreases with applied voltage. In this case the effective value used for the calculations is approximately 70 % of the rated value or 70 μF.
