7.2.2.7 Input Capacitor Selection

The TPS54538 device requires an input decoupling capacitor and, depending on the application, a bulk input capacitor. The typical recommended value for the decoupling capacitor is 10μF, and TI recommends an additional 0.1µF capacitor from the VIN pin to ground to provide high frequency filtering.

The value of a ceramic capacitor varies significantly over temperature and the amount of DC bias applied to the capacitor. TI recommends X5R and X7R ceramic dielectrics because X5R and X7R ceramic dielectrics have a high capacitance-to-volume ratio and are fairly stable over temperature. The capacitor must also be selected with the DC bias taken into account. The effective capacitance value decreases as the DC bias increases.

The capacitor voltage rating needs to be greater than the maximum input voltage. The capacitor must also have a ripple current rating greater than the maximum input current ripple. The input ripple current can be calculated using Equation 23.

Equation 23. I C I N _ R M S = I O U T × V O U T V I N _ M I N × V I N _ M I N - V O U T V I N _ M I N

For this example design, three Murata GRM32ER7YA106KA12K (10μF, 35V, 1210, X7R) capacitors have been selected. The effective capacitance under input voltage of 24V for each one is 6.16μF. The input capacitance value determines the input ripple voltage of the converter. The input voltage ripple can be calculated using Equation 24. Using the design example values, IOUT_MAX = 5A, CIN_EFF = 3 × 6.16 = 18.48μF, and fSW = 500kHz, yields an input voltage ripple of 113mV and a RMS input ripple current of 2.03A.

Equation 24. ∆ V I N = I O U T _ M A X × 0.25 f S W × C I N + ( I O U T _ M A X × R E S R _ M A X )

where

  • RESR_MAX is the maximum series resistance of the input capacitor, which is approximately 1mΩ of three capacitors in parallel.
