For this design example, a single 100μF output capacitor is chosen for C3. The calculated RMS ripple current is 143mA and the maximum ESR required is 88mΩ. A capacitor that meets these requirements is a AVX TPSD107M010R0080, rated at 10V with a maximum ESR of 80mΩ and a ripple current rating of 1.369A. This capacitor results in a peak-to-peak output ripple of 26mV using equation 10. An additional small 0.1μF ceramic bypass capacitor can also used, but is not included in this design.

Other capacitor types can be used with the TPS5420, depending on the needs of the application.
