8.2.1.2.3 Output Capacitor Selection

The output capacitor reduces the high-frequency current ripple through the LED string. Excessive current ripple increases the RMS current in the LED string, therefore increasing the LED temperature.

1. Calculate the total dynamic resistance of the LED string (RLED) using the LED manufacturer's datasheet.

2. Calculate the required impedance of the output capacitor (ZOUT) given the acceptable peak-to-peak ripple current through the LED string, ILED(ripple) . IL(ripple) is the peak-to-peak inductor ripple current as calculated with the selected inductor.

3. Calculate the minimum effective output capacitance required.

4. Increase the output capacitance appropriately due to the derating effect of applied DC voltage.

See the equation below.

Equation 7. R L E D = ∆ V F ∆ I F × #   o f   L E D s
Equation 8. Z C O U T = R L E D × I L E D ( r i p p l e ) I L ( r i p p l e ) - I L E D ( r i p p l e )
Equation 9. C C O U T = 1 2 π × f S W × Z C O U T

Once the output capacitor is chosen, the equation below can be used to estimate the peak-to-peak ripple current through the LED string.

Equation 10. I L E D ( r i p p l e ) = Z C O U T × I L ( r i p p l e ) Z C O U T + R L E D

Osram WLED is used here. The dynamic resistance of the LED is 0.67Ω at 2A forward current. Ceramic capacitors with X5R or X7R dielectrics are highly recommended because of their low ESR and small temperature coefficients. In this design, a 4.7µF, 100V X7R ceramic capacitor and a 0.1µF, 100V X7R ceramic capacitor are chosen. The calculated ripple current of the LED is about 14mA.
