Output Capacitance (COUT)

The output capacitor is selected based on holdup and transient (VTRAN) load requirements.

The time it takes LOUT to change 90% of its full load current is calculated in Equation 67:

Equation 67. UCC28950-Q1 UCC28951-Q1

During load transients most of the current will immediately go through the capacitors equivalent series resistance (ESRCOUT). Equation 68 and Equation 69 are used to select ESRCOUT and COUT based on a 90% load step in current. The ESR is selected for 90% of the allowable transient voltage (VTRAN), while the output capacitance (COUT) is selected for 10% of VTRAN.

Equation 68. UCC28950-Q1 UCC28951-Q1
Equation 69. UCC28950-Q1 UCC28951-Q1

Before selecting the output capacitor, the output capacitor RMS current (ICOUT_RMS) must be calculated using Equation 70.

Equation 70. UCC28950-Q1 UCC28951-Q1

To meet the design requirements five 1500µF, aluminum electrolytic capacitors are chosen for the design from United Chemi-Con™, part number EKY-160ELL152MJ30S. These capacitors have an ESR of 31mΩ.

The number of output capacitors (n) is 5.

The total output capacitance is calculated usingEquation 71:

Equation 71. UCC28950-Q1 UCC28951-Q1

The effective output capacitance ESR is calculated usingEquation 72:

Equation 72. UCC28950-Q1 UCC28951-Q1

Calculate output capacitor loss (PCOUT) using Equation 73:

Equation 73. UCC28950-Q1 UCC28951-Q1

Recalculate the remaining Power Budget using Equation 74:
