9.2.2.2 input Capacitor
Design input capacitance to provide enough ripple current rating to absorb input switching ripple current. The
worst case RMS ripple current is half of the charging current when duty cycle is 0.5. If the converter does not
operate at 50% duty cycle, then the worst case capacitor RMS current I_Cin occurs where the duty cycle is closest
to 50% and can be estimated using Equation 5.
I_CIN = I_CHG ´ D ´ (1 - D)

Low ESR ceramic capacitor such as X7R or X5R is preferred for input decoupling capacitor and should be
placed to the drain of the high-side MOSFET and source of the low-side MOSFET as close as possible. Voltage
rating of the capacitor must be higher than normal input voltage level. A rating of 25-V or higher capacitor is
preferred for 15 V input voltage. Capacitance of 22-μF is suggested for typical of 3A to 4 A charging current.
9.2.2.3 Output Capacitor
Ensure that the output capacitance has enough ripple current rating to absorb the output switching ripple current.
Equation 6 shows the output capacitor RMS current I_COUT calculation.

At certain input and output voltage and switching frequency, the voltage ripple can be reduced by increasing the
output filter LC.
The charger device has internal loop compensation optimized for >20μF ceramic output capacitance. The
preferred ceramic capacitor is 10V rating, X7R or X5R.
