CAPACITOR SELECTION
Low ESR capacitors are necessary to minimize voltage
losses, especially at high load currents. The exact
values of C1 and C2 are not critical but low ESR
capacitors are necessary.
The ESR of capacitor C1, the pump capacitor, can have
a pronounced effect on the output. C1 currents are
approximately twice the output current and losses occur
on both the charge and discharge cycle. The ESR
effects are thus multiplied by four. A 0.5 ESR for C1 will
have the same effect as a 2 increase in CAT660 output
impedance.

Output voltage ripple is determined by the value of C2
and the load current. C2 is charged and discharged at a
current roughly equal to the load current. The internal
switching frequency is one-half the oscillator frequency.
VRIPPLE = IOUT/(FOSC x C2) + IOUT x ESRC2
For example, with a 10kHz oscillator frequency (5kHz
switching frequency), a 150 F C2 capacitor with an ESR
of 0.2 and a 100mA load peak-to-peak ripple voltage is
87mV.
