TPS55340: Can i change the cap values from 10uF to 15uF?

Part Number: TPS55340

Hi team,

the customer would like to understand if they can change C417, C420, C430, C432, C434, and C437 from 10uF to 15uF?

the reason for this change is to reduce the footprint of the solution size. 

i thought 10uF would be smaller than 15uF in general, but this is their request. 

See specs below for their TPS55340. 

VIN:

Lithium Ion : Vin_min = 6V, Vin_nom = 7.2V, and Vin_max = 9V.

6AA battery: Vin_min = 5.5V, Vin_nom = 9V, and Vin_max = 12V.

max load current for all cases: 800mA.

see Manufacturer parts below. is this change ok?

10uF: 

 
15uF:
