Capacitor Selection
Low ESR (equivalent series resistance) capacitors should
be used at the output to minimize the output ripple voltage.
The low ESR and small package options available with
multilayer ceramic capacitors make them excellent choices.
The X5R and X7R capacitor types are preferred because
they retain their capacitance over wider voltage and
temperature ranges than the Y5V or Z5U types. A 1.0 F or
2.2 F output capacitor is recommended for most
applications.
The voltage rating of the output capacitor C2 depends on
the number of LEDs driven in series. A 10 V ceramic
capacitor is recommended when driving two LEDs. A 16 V
ceramic capacitor is recommended when driving 3 or 4
LEDs.

Low profile ceramic capacitors with a 1 mm maximum
height/thickness are available for designs height
requirements. Ceramic capacitors also make a good choice
for the input capacitor, which should be mounted as close as
possible to the W-52. A 2.2 F or 4.7 F input capacitor is
recommended. Table 6 shows a list of several ceramic
capacitor manufacturers. Consult the manufacturers for
detailed information as new products and package options
are introduced regularly.
Diode Selection
Schottky diodes, with their low forward voltage drop and
fast switching speed, are the ideal choice for high efficiency
applications. Table 7 shows several different Schottky
diodes that work well with the W-52. Make sure that the
diode has a voltage rating greater than the output voltage.
The diode conducts current only when the power switch is
turned off (typically less than oneïthird the time), so a 0.4 A
or 0.5 A diode will be sufficient for most designs.

LED Current Programming
The LED current is programmed with a single resistor
connected to the RSET pin. The RSET pin is internally
regulated to 100 mV, which sets the current flowing out of
this pin, ISET, equal to 100 mV/RSET. The W-52 regulates
the current into the LED pin, ILED, to 225 times the value of
ISET. For the best accuracy, a 1% or better resistor is
recommended. Table 8 shows several typical 1% RSET
values.
