C
85°C. The output capacitors are chosen for a low ESR of
0.013Ω to minimize output voltage changes due to induc-
tor ripple current and load steps. The ripple voltage will be
only:
However, a 0A to 10A load step will cause an output
change of up to:
An optional 22µF ceramic output capacitor is included to
minimize the effect of ESL in the output ripple. The
complete circuit is shown in Figure 9.
PC Board Layout Checklist
When laying out a PC board follow one of the two sug-
gested approaches. The simple PC board layout requires
a dedicated ground plane layer. Also, for higher currents,
it is recommended to use a multilayer board to help with
heat sinking power components.
