It is important to note that inductor saturation LT3470’s switching frequency. The capacitor’s equivalent current is reduced at high temperatures—see inductor series resistance (ESR) determines this impedance. Choose vendors for more information. one with low ESR intended for use in switching regulators. The contribution to ripple voltage due to the ESR is ap-

Step-down regulators draw current from the input sup- The value of the output capacitor must be large enough to ply in pulses with very fast rise and fall times. The input accept the energy stored in the inductor without a large capacitor is required to reduce the resulting voltage ripple change in output voltage. Setting this voltage step equal at the V to 1% of the output voltage, the output capacitor must be: IN pin of the LT3470 and to force this switching current into a tight local loop, minimizing EMI.

For example, an LT3470 producing pacitor may be required to keep input ripple low. In this 3.3V with L = 33µH requires 22µF. The calculated value case, an electrolytic of 10µF or more in parallel with a 1µF can be relaxed if small circuit size is more important than ceramic is a good combination.

Output Capacitor and Output Ripple
filtering the ripple current from the inductor, the output voltage ripple is determined by the delay in the LT3470’s The output capacitor filters the inductor’s ripple current feedback comparator. This ripple can be reduced further and stores energy to satisfy the load current when the by adding a small (typically 22pF) phase lead capacitor LT3470 is quiescent. In order to keep output voltage ripple between the output and the feedback pin. low, the impedance of the capacitor must be low at the 3470fd 10 Document Outline Features Applications Description Typical Application Absolute Maximum Ratings Pin Configuration Order Information Electrical Characteristics Typical Performance Characteristics Pin Functions Block Diagram Operation Applications Information Typical Applications Package Description Revision History Related Parts
