How do I choose a capacitor for an output filter?
For an output filter you choose a capacitor to handle the load transients and to minimize the output voltage ripple. The equation in Figure 3 shows the equation to determine the input current RMS (Root-Mean-Squared) current the capacitor can handle.
What is output capacitor?
The output capacitor is part of the output filter and also provides the charge storage for the load. Calculation of Cout depends heavily on the type of architecture, control scheme and whether the device is internally or externally compensated. The following set of equations are generally used to define a minimum capacitance.
How to select input capacitors?
The first objective in selecting input capacitors is to reduce the ripple voltage amplitude seen at the input of the module. This reduces the rms ripple current to a level which can be handled by bulk capacitors. Ceramic capacitors placed right at the input of the regulator reduce ripple voltage amplitude.
How to select bulk input capacitors?
There are two key factors for selecting bulk input capaci-tors: 1) overshoot and undershoot requirement of transient response; and 2) allowable ripple current requirement. The ESR of the bulk capacitor (ESRB) and the capaci-tance (CB) need to meet the transient response requirement.
