PRODUCTION DATA
The advanced fast-response voltage mode control scheme of the TPS6206x allows the use of tiny ceramic capacitors. TI recommends ceramic capacitors with low ESR values that have the lowest output voltage ripple. The output capacitor requires either an X7R or X5R dielectric. Y5V and Z5U dielectric capacitors, aside from their wide variation in capacitance over temperature, become resistive at high frequencies and may not be used. For most applications a nominal 10-µF or 22-µF capacitor is suitable. At small ceramic capacitors, the DC-bias effect decreases the effective capacitance. Therefore a 22-µF capacitor can be used for output voltages higher than 2 V, see list of capacitors.
In case additional ceramic capacitors in the supplied system are connected to the output of the DC/DC converter, the output capacitor COUT must be decreased in order not to exceed the recommended effective capacitance range. In this case a loop stability analysis must be performed as described later.
At nominal load current, the device operates in PWM mode and the RMS ripple current is calculated as:
