8 / 12 page 8 LT1512 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Output Capacitor It is assumed as a worst case that all the switching output ripple current from the battery charger could flow in the output capacitor. This is a desirable situation if it is neces- sary to have very low switching ripple current in the battery itself. Ferrite beads or line chokes are often inserted in series with the battery leads to eliminate high frequency currents that could create EMI problems. This forces all the ripple current into the output capacitor. Total RMS current into the capacitor has a maximum value of about 0.5A, and this is handled with a 22 µF,25VcapacitorshowninFigure1.Thisis an AVX type TPS or Sprague type 593D surface mount solid tantalum unit intended for switching applications. Do not substitute other types without ensuring that they have adequate ripple current ratings. See Input Capacitor section for details of surge limitation on solid tantalum capacitors if the battery may be “hot switched” to the output of the charger. Coupling Capacitor C2 in Figure 1 is the coupling capacitor that allows a SEPIC converter topology to work with input voltages either higher or lower than the battery voltage. DC bias on the capacitor is equal to input voltage. RMS ripple current in the coupling capacitor has a maximum value of about 0.5A at full charg- ing current. A conservative formula to calculate this is: I IV V V COUP RMS CHRG IN BAT IN () ()( . ) () = + 11 2 (1.1 is a fudge factor to account for inductor ripple current and other losses) With ICHRG = 0.5A, VIN = 15V and VBAT = 8.2V, ICOUP = 0.43A The recommended capacitor is a 2.2 µF ceramic type from Marcon or Tokin. These capacitors have extremely low ESR and high ripple current ratings in a small package. Solid tantalum units can be substituted if their ripple current rating is adequate, but typical values will increase to 22 µF or more to meet the ripple current requirements. Diode Selection The switching diode should be a Schottky type to minimize both forward and reverse recovery losses. Average diode current is the same as output charging current , so this will be under 1A. A 1A diode is recommended for most applica- tions, although smaller devices could be used at reduced 1 2 3 4 R5 C4 R3 R4 S/S 1512 F04b C5 R2 C1 D1 C2 C3 R1 VBATT + + +VIN GND L1B L1A R4 b.
