OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
A ceramic output capacitor of 10 µF, 6.3V is sufficient for most
applications. Use X7R or X5R types; do not use Y5V. DC bias
characteristics of ceramic capacitors must be considered
when selecting case sizes like 0805 and 0603. DC bias char-
acteristics vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and dc
bias curves should be requested from them as part of the ca-
pacitor selection process.
The minimum output capacitance to guarantee good per-
formance is 5.75µF at 1.8V dc bias including tolerances
and over ambient temperature range. The output filter ca-
pacitor smoothes out current flow from the inductor to the
load, helps maintain a steady output voltage during transient
load changes and reduces output voltage ripple. These ca-
pacitors must be selected with sufficient capacitance and
sufficiently low ESR to perform these functions.
The output voltage ripple is caused by the charging and dis-
charging of the output capacitor and by the R
calculated as:
Voltage peak-to-peak ripple due to capacitance can be ex-
pressed as follow:

Voltage peak-to-peak ripple due to ESR can be expressed as
follow:
V
Because these two components are out of phase the rms (root
mean squared) value can be used to get an approximate val-
ue of peak-to-peak ripple.
The peak-to-peak ripple voltage, rms value can be expressed
as follow:
Note that the output voltage ripple is dependent on the induc-
tor current ripple and the equivalent series resistance of the
output capacitor (R
