Output capacitor selection
The current in the capacitor has a triangular waveform which generates a voltage ripple
across it. This ripple is due to the capacitive component (charge and discharge of the output
capacitor) and the resistive component (due to the voltage drop across its ESR). So the
output capacitor must be selected in order to have a voltage ripple compliant with the
application requirements.
The amount of the voltage ripple can be calculated starting from the current ripple obtained
by the inductor selection.
Equation 9
Usually the resistive component of the ripple is much higher than the capacitive one, if the
output capacitor adopted is not a multi layer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) with very low ESR
value.
The output capacitor is important also for loop stability: it fixes the double LC filter pole and
the zero due to its ESR. In
illustrated.
For example, with V
order to have a ΔV
needed and the ESR effect on the output voltage ripple can be neglected. In case of not
negligible ESR (electrolytic or tantalum capacitors), the capacitor is chosen taking into
account its ESR value.
So in case of 100 μF with ESR = 40 mΩ, the resistive component of the drop dominates and
the voltage ripple is 20 mV.
The output capacitor is also important to sustain the output voltage when a load transient
with high slew rate is required by the load. When the load transient slew rate exceeds the
system bandwidth, the output capacitor provides the current to the load. So if the high slew
rate load transient is required by the application the output capacitor and system bandwidth
must be chosen in order to sustain the load transient.
