6.4 Output Capacitor

  • Use a wide trace to connect the output capacitor ground terminal to the input capacitor ground terminal.
  • The control loop performance may vary with changes in the output capacitor value and ESR. Contact the factory if the output capacitor differs from the components listed in the BOM.
  • The feedback trace should be separate from the power trace and connected as close as possible to the output capacitor. Sensing a long, high current load trace can degrade the DC load regulation.
