The load transient requirements are the function of the

slew rate (di/dt) and the magnitude of the transient load

current. These requirements are generally met with a

mix of capacitors and careful layout. High frequency

capacitors initially supply the transient and slow the

current load rate seen by the bulk capacitors. The bulk

filter capacitor values are generally determined by the ESR

(Effective Series Resistance) and voltage rating require-

ments rather than actual capacitance requirements.

High frequency decoupling capacitors should be placed

as close to the power pins of the load as physically

possible. Be careful not to add inductance in the circuit

board wiring that could cancel the usefulness of these

low inductance components. An aluminum electrolytic

capacitor’s ESR value is related to the case size with lower

ESR available in larger case sizes. However, the Equiva-

lent Series Inductance (ESL) of these capacitors increases

with case size and can reduce the usefulness of the ca-

pacitor to high slew-rate transient loading.

Inductor Value Calculation

The operating frequency and inductor selection are

interrelated in that higher operating frequencies permit

the use of a smaller inductor for the same amount of

inductor ripple current. However, this is at the expense of

efficiency due to an increase in MOSFET gate charge

losses. The equation (2) shows that the inductance value

has a direct effect on ripple current.

Accepting larger values of ripple current allows the use of

low inductances but results in higher output voltage ripple

Output Diode Selection

The Schottky diode carries load current during the off-

time. The average diode current is therefore dependent

on the P-channel power MOSFET duty cycle. At high input

voltages, the diode conducts most of the time. As V

IN ap-

proaches V

OUT, the diode conducts only a small fraction of

the time. The most stressful condition for the diode is

when the output is short-circuited. Therefore, it is impor-

tant to adequately specify the diode peak current and av-

erage power dissipation so as not to exceed the diode

ratings.

Under normal load conditions, the average current con-

ducted by the diode is:

The APW7089 is equipped with whole protections to re-

duce the power dissipation during short-circuit condition.

Therefore, the maximum power dissipation of the diode

is calculated from the maximum output current as:

and greater core losses. A reasonable starting point for

setting ripple current is

∆I ≤ 0.4 ⋅ I

maximum ripple current occurs at the maximum input

voltage. The minimum inductance of the inductor is cal-

culated by using the following equation:
