8.2.3.3.2 Response to a Load Transient

The output capacitance must supply the load with the required current when current is not immediately provided by the regulator. When the output capacitor supplies load current, the impedance of the capacitor greatly affects the magnitude of voltage deviation (such as undershoot and overshoot) during the transient.

Use Equation 8 and Equation 9 to estimate the amount of capacitance needed for a given dynamic load step and release.

NOTE

There are other factors that can impact the amount of output capacitance for a specific design, such as ripple and stability.
Equation 8. TPS548D22 eq_coutmin_u_slusc70.gif
Equation 9. TPS548D22 eq_coutmin_o_slusc70.gif

where

  • COUT(min_under) is the minimum output capacitance to meet the undershoot requirement
  • COUT(min_over)is the minimum output capacitance to meet the overshoot requirement
  • L is the output inductance value (0.25 µH)
  • ∆ILOAD(max) is the maximum transient step (24 A)
  • VOUT is the output voltage value (1 V)
  • tSW is the switching period (1.538 µs)
  • VIN(min) is the minimum input voltage for the design (10.8 V)
  • tOFF(min) is the minimum off time of the device (300 ns)
  • ∆VLOAD(insert) is the undershoot requirement (30 mV)
  • ∆VLOAD(release) is the overshoot requirement (30 mV)

Most of the above parameters can be found in Table 5.

The minimum output capacitance to meet the undershoot requirement is 969 µF. The minimum output capacitance to meet the overshoot requirement is 2400 µF. This example uses a combination of POSCAP and MLCC capacitors to meet the overshoot requirement.

  • POSCAP bank #1: 4 x 470 µF, 2.5 V, 6 mΩ per capacitor
  • MLCC bank #2: 10 × 100 µF, 2.5 V, 1 mΩ per capacitor with DC+AC derating factor of 60%

Recalculating the worst case overshoot using the described capacitor bank design, the overshoot is 29.0 mV which meets the 30 mV overshoot specification requirement.
