PRODUCTION DATA
The TPSM843321 device requires an input decoupling capacitor and, depending on the application, a bulk input capacitor. The typical recommended value for the decoupling capacitor is 10μF, and TI recommends an additional 0.1µF capacitor from the VIN pin to ground to provide high frequency filtering.
The value of a ceramic capacitor varies significantly over temperature and the amount of DC bias applied to the capacitor. TI recommends X5R and X7R ceramic dielectrics because X5R and X7R ceramic dielectrics have a high capacitance-to-volume ratio and are fairly stable over temperature. The capacitor must also be selected with the DC bias taken into account. The effective capacitance value decreases as the DC bias increases.
The capacitor voltage rating must be greater than the maximum input voltage. The capacitor must also have a ripple current rating greater than the maximum input current ripple. Use the following equation to calculate the input ripple current .
Use the following equation to calculate the input voltage ripple.
where
RESR_MAX is the maximum series resistance of the input capacitor, which is approximately 1mΩ of three capacitors in parallel.
