LTC1159
LTC1159-3.3/LTC1159-5
CIN and COUT Selection
In continuous mode, the source current of the P-channel
MOSFET is a square wave of duty cycle VOUT/VIN.
To prevent large voltage transients, a low ESR input
capacitor sized for the maximum RMS current must be
used. The maximum RMS capacitor current is given by:
CIN Required IRMS
IMAX [VOUT(VIN – VOUT)]1/2
VIN
This formula has a maximum at VIN = 2VOUT, where
IRMS = IMAX/2. This simple worst-case condition is com-
monly used for design because even significant deviations
do not offer much relief. Note that capacitor manufacturer’s
ripple current ratings are often based on only 2000 hours
of life. This makes it advisable to further derate the
capacitor, or to choose a capacitor rated at a higher
temperature than required. Several capacitors may be
paralleled to meet size or height requirements in the
design. An additional 0.1
µF ceramic capacitor may also be
required on VIN for high frequency decoupling.
The selection of COUT is driven by the required effective
series resistance (ESR). The ESR of COUT must be less than
twice the value of RSENSE for proper operation of the
LTC1159:
COUT Required ESR < 2RSENSE
Optimum efficiency is obtained by making the ESR equal to
RSENSE. Manufacturers such as Nichicon, Chemicon, and
Sprague should be considered for high performance ca-
pacitors. The OS-CON semiconductor dielectric capacitor
available from Sanyo has the lowest ESR for its size at a
somewhat higher price. Once the ESR requirement for
COUT has been met, the RMS current rating generally far
exceeds the IRIPPLE(P-P) requirement.
In surface mount applications, multiple capacitors may
have to be paralleled to meet the capacitance, ESR or RMS
current handling requirements of the application. Alumi-
num electrolytic and dry tantalum capacitors are both
available in surface mount configurations. In the case of
tantalum, it is critical that the capacitors are surge tested
for use in switching power supplies. An excellent choice is
the AVX TPS series of surface mount tantalums, available
in case heights ranging from 2mm to 4mm. For example,
if 200
µF/10V is called for in an application requiring 3mm
height, two AVX 100
µF/10V(P/NTPSD107K010)couldbe
used. Consult the manufacturer for other specific recom-
mendations.
At low supply voltages, a minimum value of COUT is
suggested to prevent an abnormal low frequency operating
mode (see Figure 4). When COUT is too small, the output
ripple at low frequencies will be large enough to trip the
voltage comparator. This causes the Burst Mode operation
to be activated when the LTC1159 would normally be in
continuous operation. The effect is most pronounced with
low values of RSENSE and can be improved by operating at
higher frequencies with lower values of L. The output
remains in regulation at all times.

Load Transient Response
Switching regulators take several cycles to respond to a
step in DC (resistive) load current. When a load step
occurs, VOUT shifts by an amount equal to ∆ILOAD • ESR,
where ESR is the effective series resistance of COUT. ∆ILOAD
also begins to charge or discharge COUT until the regulator
loop adapts to the current change and returns VOUT to its
steady-state value. During this recovery time VOUT can be
monitored for overshoot or ringing which would indicate a
stability problem. The ITH external components shown in
the Figure 1 circuit will provide adequate compensation for
most applications.
A second, more severe transient is caused by switching in
loads with large (>1
µF) supply bypass capacitors. The
