Output Filter Component Selection

Using Equation 10, the minimum inductor value is 12μH. A value of 15μH is chosen for this design.

When using ceramic output filter capacitors, the recommended LC resonant frequency must be no more than 7kHz. Because the output inductor is already selected at 15μH, this selection limits the minimum output capacitor value to:

Equation 22. TPS5430-Q1

The minimum capacitor value is calculated to be 34μF. For this circuit a larger value of capacitor yields better transient response. A single 100μF output capacitor is used for C3. Make sure to note that the actual capacitance of ceramic capacitors decreases with applied voltage. In this example, the output voltage is set to 3.3V, minimizing this effect.
