Input Capacitor Selection
The input filter capacitor reduces peak currents drawn from
the input source and reduces input switching noise. Since
the IC can operate at voltages below 0.5V once the output
is regulated, then demand on the input capacitor is much
less and in most applications a 4.7
μF is recommended.
Output Diode
For applications with output voltages over 4.3V, a Schottky
diode is required to ensure that the SW pin voltage does
not exceed its absolute maximum rating. The Schottky
diode across the synchronous PMOS switch provides a
lower drop during the break-before-make time (typically
20ns) of the NMOS to PMOS transition. The Schottky
diode improves peak efficiency (see graph “Efficiency
Loss Without Schottky vs Frequency). Use of a Schottky
diode such as a MBR0520L, 1N5817 or equivalent. Since
slow recovery times will compromise efficiency, do not
use ordinary rectifier diodes.
Operating Frequency Selection
There are several considerations in selecting the operating
frequency of the converter. The first is determining the
sensitive frequency bands that cannot tolerate any spec-
tral noise. For example, in products incorporating RF
communications, the 455kHz IF frequency is sensitive to
any noise, therefore switching above 600kHz is desired.
Some communications have sensitivity to 1.1MHz. In this
case, a 2MHz converter frequency may be employed.
The second consideration is the physical size of the
converter. As the operating frequency goes up, the induc-
tor and filter caps go down in value and size. The trade off
is in efficiency since the switching losses due to gate
charge are going up proportional with frequency. For
example in Figure 2, for a 2.4V to 3.3V converter, the
efficiency at 100mA is 5% less at 2MHz compared to
300kHz.
Another operating frequency consideration is whether the
application can allow “pulse skipping.” In this mode, the
minimum on time of the converter cannot support the duty
cycle, so the converter ripple will go up and there will be
a low frequency component of the output ripple. In many

applications where physical size is the main criterion then
running the converter in this mode is acceptable. In
applications where it is preferred not to enter this mode,

Reducing Output Capacitance with a Load Feed
Forward Signal
In many applications the output filter capacitance can be
reduced for the desired transient response by having the
device commanding the change in load current, (i.e.
system microcontroller), inform the power converter of
the changes as they occur. Specifically, a “load feed
forward” signal coupled into the VC pin gives the inner
current loop a head start in providing the change in output
current. The transconductance of the LTC3402 converter
at the VC pin with respect to the inductor current is typically
170mA/100mV, so the amount of signal injected is pro-
portional to the anticipated change of inductor current
with load. The outer voltage loop performs the remainder
of the correction, but because of the load feed forward
signal, the range over which it must slew is greatly
reduced. This results in an improved transient response.
A logic level feed forward signal, VFF, is coupled through
components C5 and R6. The amount of feed forward
