pacitors, both terms in equation (3) need to be evalu-
ated to determine the overall ripple. Usually when this
type of capacitors are selected, the amount of capaci-
tance per single unit is not sufficient to meet the tran-
sient specification, which results in parallel configura-

Based On Transient Requirement

transient is composed of two sections. One Section is
dependent on the ESR of capacitor, the other section is
a function of the inductor, output capacitance as well as
input, output voltage. For example, for the overshoot,
when load from high load to light load with a
transient load, if assuming the bandwidth of system is
high enough, the overshoot can be estimated as the fol-
lowing equation.
