Including an additional resistor between ILIM and the
output automatically creates a current-limit threshold that
folds back as the output voltage drops (see Figure 7).
The foldback current limit helps limit the inductor cur-
rent under fault conditions, but must be carefully
designed in order to provide reliable performance
under normal conditions. The current-limit threshold
must not be set too low, or the controller will not reliably
power up. To ensure the controller powers up properly,
the minimum current-limit threshold (when V
must always be greater than the maximum load during
startup (which at least consists of leakage currents),
plus the maximum current required to charge the out-
put capacitors:
The output filter capacitor must have low enough effec-
tive series resistance (ESR) to meet output ripple and
load-transient requirements. Additionally, the ESR
impacts stability requirements. Capacitors with a high
ESR value (polymers/tantalums) will not need additional
external compensation components.

In core and chipset converters and other applications
where the output is subject to large load transients, the
output capacitor’s size typically depends on how much
ESR is needed to prevent the output from dipping too
low under a load transient. Ignoring the sag due to
finite capacitance:
In low-power applications, the output capacitor’s size
often depends on how much ESR is needed to maintain
an acceptable level of output ripple voltage. The output
ripple voltage of a step-down controller equals the total
inductor ripple current multiplied by the output capaci-
tor’s ESR. The maximum ESR to meet ripple require-
ments is:
