8 / 16 page LT3467/LT3467A 8 3467afd APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Capacitor Selection Low ESR (equivalent series resistance) capacitors should be used at the output to minimize the output ripple voltage. Multi-layer ceramic capacitors are an excellent choice, as they have extremely low ESR and are available in very small packages. X5R dielectrics are preferred, followed by X7R, as these materials retain the capacitance over wide voltage and temperature ranges. A 4.7μF to 15μF output capacitor is sufficient for most applications, but systems with very low output currents may need only a 1μF or 2.2μF output capacitor. Solid tantalum or OS-CON capacitors can be used, but they will occupy more board area than a ceramic and will have a higher ESR. Always use a capacitor with a sufficient voltage rating. Ceramic capacitors also make a good choice for the input decoupling capacitor, which should be placed as close as possible to the LT3467. A 1μF to 4.7μF input capacitor is sufficient for most applications. Table 2 shows a list of several ceramic capacitor manufacturers. Consult the manufacturers for detailed information on their entire selection of ceramic parts. Table 2. Ceramic Capacitor Manufacturers Taiyo Yuden (408) 573-4150 www.t-yuden.com AVX (803) 448-9411 www.avxcorp.com Murata (714) 852-2001 www.murata.com The decision to use either low ESR (ceramic) capacitors or the higher ESR (tantalum or OS-CON) capacitors can affect the stability of the overall system. The ESR of any capacitor, along with the capacitance itself, contributes a zero to the system. For the tantalum and OS-CON ca- pacitors, this zero is located at a lower frequency due to the higher value of the ESR, while the zero of a ceramic capacitor is at a much higher frequency and can generally be ignored. A phase lead zero can be intentionally introduced by placing a capacitor (C4) in parallel with the resistor (R1) between VOUT and VFB as shown in Figure 2. The frequency of the zero is determined by the following equation. ƒ= Z RC 1 21 4 π •• By choosing the appropriate values for the resistor and capacitor, the zero frequency can be designed to improve the phase margin of the overall converter. The typical target value for the zero frequency is between 35kHz to 55kHz. Figure 3 shows the transient response of the step-up converter from Figure 8 without the phase lead capacitor C4. Although adequate for many applications, phase margin is not ideal as evidenced by 2-3 “bumps” in both the output voltage and inductor current. A 22pF capacitor for C4 results in ideal phase margin, which is revealed in Figure 4 as a more damped response and less overshoot. Diode Selection A Schottky diode is recommended for use with the LT3467 and the LT3467A. The Philips PMEG 2005 is a very good choice. Where the switch voltage exceeds 20V, use the PMEG 3005 (a 30V diode). Where the switch voltage exceeds 30V, use the PMEG 4005 (a 40V diode). These diodes are rated to handle an average forward current of 0.5A. In applications where the average forward current of the diode exceeds 0.5A, a Philips PMEG 2010 rated at 1A is recommended. For higher efficiency, use a diode with better thermal characteristics such as the On Semi- conductor MBRM120 (a 20V diode) or the MBRM140 (a 40V diode). |
