PI33XX-X0
Filter Considerations
The PI33XX requires input bulk storage capacitance
as well as low impedance ceramic X5R input
capacitors to ensure proper start up and high
frequency decoupling for the power stage. The
PI33XX will draw nearly all of the high frequency
current from the low impedance ceramic capacitors
when the main high side MOSFET is conducting.
During the time the high side MOSFET is off, they are
replenished from the bulk capacitor. If the input
impedance is high at the switching frequency of the
converter, the bulk capacitor must supply all of the
average current into the converter, including
replenishing the ceramic capacitors. This value has
been chosen to be 100µF so that the PI33XX can
start up into a full resistive load and supply the
output capacitive load with the default minimum
soft start capacitor when the input source
impedance is 50 Ohms at 1MHz. The ESR for this
capacitor should be approximately 20mΩ. The RMS
ripple current in this capacitor is small, so it should
not be a concern if the input recommended ceramic
capacitors are used. Table 6 shows the
recommended input and output capacitors to be
used for the various models as well as expected
transient response, RMS ripple currents per
capacitor, and input and output ripple voltages.
Table 7 includes the recommended input and output
ceramic capacitors.
