For the best output voltage filtering, a low ESR output capacitor is recommended. Ceramic capacitors have a

low ESR value, but depending on the application, tantalum capacitors can be used as well. A 22-

µF ceramic

output capacitor works for most of the applications. Higher capacitor values can be used to improve the load

transient regulation. See Table 2 for selection of the output capacitor. The output voltage ripple can be

calculated as:

with:

L = Selected inductor value

ESR = Output capacitor ESR value

For good input voltage filtering, low ESR ceramic capacitors are recommended. A 22-

µF ceramic input capacitor

is sufficient for most of the applications. For better input voltage filtering, this value can be increased. See

Table 2 and the typical applications for input capacitor recommendations.

To achieve high efficiency, a Schottky diode should be used. The voltage rating should be higher than the

maximum output voltage of the converter. The average forward current should be equal to the average inductor

current of the converter. The main parameter influencing the efficiency of the converter is the forward voltage

and the reverse leakage current of the diode; both should be as low as possible. Possible diodes are: On

Semiconductor MBRM120L, Microsemi UPS120E, and Fairchild Semiconductor MBRS130L.
