APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
4.7µF to 10µF output capacitor is sufficient for most ap-
plications. Larger values may be used to obtain extremely
low output voltage ripple and improve transient response.
X5R and X7R dielectric materials are preferred for their
ability to maintain capacitance over wide voltage and
temperature ranges. Y5V types should not be used.
The internal loop compensation of the LTC3535 is designed
to be stable with output capacitor values of 4.7µF or greater
(without the need for any external series resistor). Although
ceramic capacitors are recommended, low ESR tantalum
capacitors may be used as well.
A small ceramic capacitor in parallel with a larger tantalum
capacitor may be used in demanding applications that have
large load transients. Another method of improving the
transient response is to add a small feed-forward capacitor
across the top resistor of the feedback divider (from V
OUT
to FB). A typical value of 22pF will generally suffice.
Low ESR input capacitors reduce input switching noise
and reduce the peak current drawn from the battery. It
follows that ceramic capacitors are also a good choice
for input decoupling and should be located as close as
possible to the device. A 2.2µF input capacitor is sufficient
for most applications, although larger values may be
used without limitations. Table 2 shows a list of several
ceramic capacitor manufacturers. Consult the manufactur-
ers directly for detailed information on their selection of
ceramic capacitors.
