Charge-Pump Output Capacitor

In typical applications, a 4.7-µF low-ESR ceramic charge-pump output capacitor (C3) is recommended. Different output capacitance values can be used to reduce charge pump ripple, shrink the solution size, and/or cut the cost of the solution. However, changing the output capacitor may also require changing the flying capacitor or input capacitor to maintain good overall circuit performance.

In higher-current applications, a 10-µF, 10-V low-ESR ceramic output capacitor is recommended. If a small output capacitor is used, the output ripple can become large during the transition between PFM mode and constant switching. To prevent toggling, a 2-µF capacitance is recommended. For example, 10-µF, 10-V output capacitor in a 0402 case size typically has only 2-µF capacitance when biased to 5 V.
