TPS799: How to determine bypass capacitor value?

Part Number: TPS799

Tool/software:

The TPS799 accepts a bypass cap on the NR pin to reduce noise. How does one determine the capacitance value and type?

  • Hi Marcus,

    In section 7.3.3 of the datasheet for this device, we mention "To ensure that CNR is fully charged during start-up, use a 0.01-μF or smaller capacitor."

    The NR pin is high impedance so a low leakage CNR capacitor must be used. We recommend a ceramic type of capacitor.
