●
Very good, small tantalum capacitors with very low ESR are becoming more available.
However, they can occasionally burn if subjected to very high current during charge.
Therefore, it is better to avoid this type of capacitor for the input filter of the device. They can,
however, be subjected to high surge current when connected to the power supply.
Table 6.
●
The output capacitor is very important to meet the output voltage ripple requirements.
Using a small inductor value is useful to reduce the size of the choke but it increases the
current ripple. So, to reduce the output voltage ripple, a low ESR capacitor is required.
Nevertheless, the ESR of the output capacitor introduces a zero in the open loop gain,
which helps to increase the phase margin of the system. If the zero goes to a very high
frequency, its effect is negligible. For this reason, ceramic capacitors and very low ESR
capacitors in general should be avoided.
Tantalum and electrolytic capacitors are usually a good choice for this purpose. A list of
some tantalum capacitor manufacturers is provided in
Table 7.
1. POSCAP capacitors have some characteristics which are very similar to tantalum.
●
The inductor value is very important as it fixes the ripple current flowing through the output
capacitor. The ripple current is usually fixed at 20 - 40% of I
