Capacitor Selection

For minimum output voltage ripple, the output capacitor (COUT) should be a surface-mount ceramic capacitor. Tantalum capacitors generally have a higher effective series resistance (ESR) and may contribute to higher output voltage ripple. Leaded capacitors also increase ripple due to the higher inductance of the package itself. To achieve the best operation with low input voltage and high load current, the input and flying capacitors (CIN and CFLY, respectively) should also be surface-mount ceramic types.

TPS60151 caps_lvsa02.gifFigure 11. Capacitors

Generally, CFLY can be calculated by the following simple equation,

Equation 2. TPS60151 eq_qchg_lvs888.gif

Both equation should be same, TPS60151 eq_inline_lvs888.gif

Equation 3. TPS60151 eq_cfly_lvs888.gif

If ILOAD = 140 mA, f = 1.5 MHz, and ΔVCFLY = 100 mV, the minimum value of the flying capacitor should be 1 μF.

Output capacitance, COUT, is also strongly related to output ripple voltage and loop stability,

Equation 4. TPS60151 eq_ripple_lvs888.gif

The minimum output capacitance for all output levels is 2.2 μF due to control stability. Larger ceramic capacitors or low ESR capacitors can be used to lower the output ripple voltage.

2.2 μF X5R or X7R 0603 10 V

The efficiency of the charge pump regulator varies with the output voltage, the applied input voltage and the load current.

The approximate efficiency in normal operating mode is given by:
