PRODUCTION DATA.
The advanced fast response voltage mode control scheme of the inductive converters implemented in the TPS65023x allow the use of small ceramic capacitors with a typical value of 10 μF for each converter without having large output voltage under and overshoots during heavy load transients. Ceramic capacitors having low ESR values have the lowest output voltage ripple and are recommended. See Table 19 for recommended components.
If ceramic output capacitors are used, the capacitor RMS ripple current rating always meets the application requirements. Just for completeness, the RMS ripple current is calculated in Equation 10.
At nominal load current, the inductive converters operate in PWM mode. The overall output voltage ripple is the sum of the voltage spike caused by the output capacitor ESR plus the voltage ripple caused by charging and discharging the output capacitor:
where
At light load currents, the converters operate in PSM and the output voltage ripple is dependent on the output capacitor value. The output voltage ripple is set by the internal comparator delay and the external capacitor. The typical output voltage ripple is less than 1% of the nominal output voltage.
