PRODUCTION DATA
The device requires an input decoupling capacitor, and a bulk capacitor is needed depending on the application. TI recommends a ceramic capacitor over 10µF for the decoupling capacitor. An additional 0.1µF capacitor (C2) from VIN to GND is required for high frequency filtering. The capacitor voltage rating must be greater than the maximum input voltage.
Use the following equation to calculate the input ripple voltage (ΔVIN).
where:
The maximum RMS (root mean square) ripple current must also be checked. For worst case conditions, use Equation 7 to calculate ICIN(RMS).
The actual input-voltage ripple is greatly affected by parasitic associated with the layout and the output impedance of the voltage source. Design Requirements shows the actual input voltage ripple for this circuit, which is larger than the calculated value. The maximum voltage across the input capacitors is VIN (MAX) + ΔVIN/2. The selected bypass capacitor is rated for 50V and the ripple current capacity is greater than 2A. Both values provide ample margin. The maximum ratings for voltage and current must not be exceeded under any circumstance.
