This application note describes the selection considerations of output capacitors, based on load transient and output impedance of processors power rails. Presently, there are no specific tools available for non-Intel processor output capacitors selection in multiphase designs.
The first objective in selecting input capacitors is to reduce the ripple voltage amplitude seen at the input of the module. This reduces the rms ripple current to a level which can be handled by bulk capacitors. Ceramic capacitors placed right at the input of the regulator reduce ripple voltage amplitude.
Analytical and experimental results show that output capacitors selection is optimized for load transient and output impedance, to fulfill non-Intel processor requirements. D-CAP+ is a trademark of Texas Instruments. High-performance microprocessors require low voltage and high current voltage regulator modules(VRM).
The selection of the output capacitors is determined by the allowable peak voltage deviation (ΔV). This limit should reflect the actual requirements, and should not be specified lower than needed. The distribution bus impedance seen by the load is the parameter that determines the peak voltage deviation during a fast transient.
The transient requirements of your system are very important. The load transient amplitude, voltage deviation requirements, and capacitor impedance each affects capacitor selection. Other important issues to consider are minimizing PCB area and capacitor cost.
Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, the amount and type of capacitance can vary. The first objective in selecting input capacitors is to reduce the ripple voltage amplitude seen at the input of the module. This reduces the rms ripple current to a level which can be handled by bulk capacitors.
