Input capacitors selection
In a buck topology converter the current that flows into the input capacitor is a pulsed current
with zero average value. The input RMS current of the two switching sections can be roughly
estimated as follows:
Equation 17
Where D
sections.
Input capacitor should be chosen with an RMS rated current higher than the maximum RMS
current given by both sections.
Tantalum capacitors are good in term of low ESR and small size, but they occasionally can
burn out if subjected to very high current during the charge. Ceramic capacitors have
usually a higher RMS current rating with smaller size and they remain the best choice.
Below there is a list of some ceramic capacitor manufacturers.
