ZHCSHG7C January 2018 – July 2018 TPSM84209
PRODUCTION DATA.
The TPSM84209 is internally compensated to be stable over the operating range of the device. However, depending on the output voltage and amount of output capacitance, an additional feed-forward capacitor, CFF, may be added for optimum performance. Adding additional output capacitance above the minimum reduces the output voltage ripple of the device. However, adding additional output capacitance also reduces the cross-over frequency of the device, slowing the response to load transients. Adding a feed-forward capacitor when adding more output capacitance helps to restore cross-over frequency of the device, restoring the transient response.
The external feed-forward capacitor must be placed in parallel with the top resistor divider, RFBT. The placement of CFF is shown in Figure 19. Table 6 lists the required CFF values for different amounts of output capacitance. For output voltages < 2.5 V, it is not recommended to add a CFF capacitor.
