Component Selection
This section explains considerations for the external components selection. The following schematic shows the
interconnection between external components and the device for a typical DC/DC step down application.
Figure 31. Typical Application Schematic
1) Input Capacitors (C1, C11)
Input filter capacitor (C11) is used to filter out high frequency noise in the input line. Typical values of C11 are
0.1µF to 0.01µF. For higher frequency noise, low capacitor values are recommended.
To minimize the ripple voltage, input ceramic de-coupling capacitor (C1) of type X5R or X7R should be used.
The DC voltage rating for the input decoupling capacitor must be greater than the maximum input voltage. This
capacitor must have an input ripple current rating higher than the maximum input ripple current of the converter
for the application; and is determined by Equation 33.
(33)
The input capacitors for power regulators are chosen to have a reasonable capacitance-to-volume ratio and fairly
stable over temperature. The value of the input capacitance also determines the input ripple voltage of the
regulator, shown by Equation 34.
(34)
Input ceramic filter capacitors should be located in close proximity to the VIN terminal. Surface mount capacitors
are recommended to minimize lead length and reduce noise coupling.
