Original question:

TPS763: How to select output capacitor ?

TPS763-Q1: Low ESR Ceramic Capacitor as Output Capacitor.

Part Number: TPS763-Q1

Dear TI Team,

could you please help to clarify following question.

We would like to use the Ceramic Capacitor with Low ESR as output Capacitor for TPS76301-Q1 LDO (the ESR plot of the capacitor to use below).

According to datasheet the ESR of the output capacitor must be between 0.3 Ω and 10 Ω.

To meet the LDO output capacitor ESR requirements, the e.g. 1 Ω resistance should be added to the output capacitor in series.

Did I correctly understand that from the datasheet?

Does it important how resistor will be connected: - between the capacitor terminal and GND; - between the capacitor terminal and Vout LDO pin?

Thanks for help and looking forward to your answer.

Best Regards,

Igor Kuksin

    Hi Igor,

    You have interpreted the datasheet properly. The series resistor is placed in series with the output capacitor between VOUT and GND.

    Note: if you are looking for a newer device that works with ceramic capacitors, we have the TPS709-Q1.

    I hope this helps.
