When used, the capacitor helps to reduce the noise and saves the input battery life. The input capacitor has to withstand the input RMS current, which can be calculated by the following formula: (EQ 4) While designing for wide input/output voltage range, the worst case of Irms=1/2*IOUT must be considered. Suggested capacitors are low ESR OSCON, polymer, aluminum or MLCCs. Tantalum types are not recommended for their weakness in withstanding big inrush currents. 9.2 Output Inductor The inductor together with the output capacitor represents the output filter. Using the AS7620, the inductor is charged and completely discharged at every switching cycle being that the converter is forced to work in DCM. Values from 10µH to 100µH are suitable to work with AS7620 and its selection should consider the following statements: Bigger inductor implies lower fsw Bigger inductor implies lower bandwidth The inductor must be rated to withstand the peak current (ILIM) and the RMS current 9.3 Output Capacitor The output capacitor together with the inductor represents the output filter. The bigger the capacitance is, the lower will be the output ripple. Usually, low ESR MLCCs are preferred as they are inexpensive and small in size. Any value from 10µF is suitable, considering the load transient specifications of the application as well. 9.4 Free Wheeling Diode The inductor current is forced through the diode during the off-times. The average current flowing through it is The reverse voltage must be higher than the input voltage and safely it is common to consider 30% more. Normally, a schottky diode is preferred because of its low forward voltage. 9.5 Stability Even though the hysteretic voltage mode is intrinsically stable, an excessive noise at the FB could cause instability. For this reason care must be taken drawing the layout, reducing the noise and shielding the FB path from it. The main noise generator is the switching node, which is commutated from GND to VIN by the internal PMOS and the free wheeling diode and through which a pulse current flows. It is wise to add a MLCC capacitor as close as possible to the VIN pin of the device and provide a wide/short path between the LX pin and the external components (inductor and diode). It is preferable to draw the FB path as far as possible from the LX node and, perhaps, shielding it with a GND track. Another recommendation is to use low ESL output capacitors, thus avoiding electrolytic parts. A big ESL adds a square wave contribution on the FB that can make the device work improperly. 9.6 100% Duty Cycle Operation Thanks to the PMOS structure of the internal switch, the device can actually work at 100% duty cycle. This feature is very helpful during the load transient, because the maximum power can be transferred to the output in order to recover as fastest. The device will try to work at 100% duty whenever the FB voltage is lower than the upper window’s threshold. Moreover, in this condition, the safety is always guaranteed by the current limit.
