Designing for Load Transients
PTH04000W
SLTS247B JUNE 2005 REVISED OCTOBER 2007
The transient response of the dc/dc converter has been characterized using a load transient with a di/dt of 1 A/s.
The typical voltage deviation for this load transient is given in the data sheet specification table using the optional
value of output capacitance. As the di/dt of a transient is increased, the response of a converter's regulation
circuit ultimately depends on its output capacitor decoupling network. This is an inherent limitation with any dc/dc
converter once the speed of the transient exceeds its bandwidth capability. If the target application specifies a
higher di/dt or lower voltage deviation, the requirement can only be met with additional output capacitor
decoupling. In these cases, special attention must be paid to the type, value, and ESR of the capacitors selected.
If the transient performance requirements exceed those specified in the data sheet, the selection of output
capacitors becomes more important. Review the minimum ESR in the characteristic data sheet for details on the
capacitance maximum.

(1) Check with capacitor manufacturers for availability and lead-free status.
(2) A ceramic capacitor is required on the input. An electrolytic capacitor can be added to the output for improved transient response.
(3) An optional through-hole capacitor available.
(4) A total capacitance of 44 µF is an acceptable replacement for a single 47-µF capacitor.
