OUTPUT CAPACITOR SELECTION
The output capacitor selection affects both the output voltage ripple
and the loop dynamics of the converter. For a given loop crossover
frequency (the frequency at which the loop gain drops to 0 dB), the
maximum voltage transient excursion (overshoot) is inversely
proportional to the value of the output capacitor. Therefore, larger
output capacitors result in improved load transient response. To
minimize the effects of the dc-to-dc converter switching, the cross-
over frequency of the compensation loop should be less than 1/10
of the switching frequency. Higher crossover frequency leads to
faster settling time for a load transient response, but it can also
cause ringing due to poor phase margin. Lower crossover
frequency helps to provide stable operation but needs large output
capacitors to achieve competitive overshoot specifications.
Therefore, the optimal crossover frequency for the control loop of
ADP2105/ADP2106/ADP2107 is 80 kHz, 1/15 of the switching
frequency. For a crossover frequency of 80 kHz, Figure 39 shows
the maximum output voltage excursion during a 1 A load transient,
as the product of the output voltage and the output capacitor is
varied. Choose the output capacitor based on the desired load
transient response and target output voltage.

≈=⇒ CapacitorOutput
The ADP2105/ADP2106/ADP2107 have been designed for
operation with small ceramic output capacitors that have low
ESR and ESL. Therefore, they are comfortably able to meet tight
output voltage ripple specifications. X5R or X7R dielectrics are
recommended with a voltage rating of 6.3 V or 10 V. Y5V and Z5U
dielectrics are not recommended, due to their poor temperature
and dc bias characteristics. Table 10 shows a list of recommended
MLCC capacitors from Murata and Taiyo Yuden.
When choosing output capacitors, it is also important to
account for the loss of capacitance due to output voltage dc bias.
Figure 40 shows the loss of capacitance due to output voltage dc
bias for three X5R MLCC capacitors from Murata.

For example, to get 20 µF output capacitance at an output voltage
of 2.5 V, based on Figure 40, as well as to give some margin for
temperature variance, a 22 μF and a 10 μF capacitor are to be
