Output Voltage Ripple

The output voltage ripple is another important design consideration. Equation 10 calculates the minimum output capacitance required to meet the output voltage ripple specification. This criterion is the requirement when the impedance of the output capacitance is dominated by ESR.

Equation 10. TPS548D22 eq_coutmin_rip_slusc70.gif

In this case, the maximum output voltage ripple is 10 mV. For this requirement, the minimum capacitance for ripple requirement yields 108 µF. Because this capacitance value is significantly lower compared to that of transient requirement, determine the capacitance bank from step 8.2.3.3.2. Because the output capacitor bank consists of both POSCAP and MLCC type capacitors, it is important to consider the ripple effect at the switching frequency due to effective ESR. Use Equation 11 to determine the maximum ESR of the output capacitor bank for the switching frequency.

Equation 11. TPS548D22 eq_esrmax_slusc70.gif

Estimate the effective ESR at the switching frequency by obtaining the impedance vs. frequency characteristics of the output capacitors. The parallel impedance of capacitor bank #1 and capacitor bank #2 at the switching frequency of the design example is estimated to be 1.2 mΩ, which is less than that of the maximum ESR value. Therefore, the output voltage ripple requirement (7 mV) can be met. For detailed calculation on the effective ESR please contact the factory to obtain a user-friendly Excel based design tool.
