Abstract

Buck converter must operate at fairly high switching frequency for miniaturizing a whole circuit and achieving a fast response. However, at the conditions of low output voltage, high output current, and high switching frequency, the influence of parasitic elements to circuit operation will become extremely obvious. In this paper, it has been shown that these parasitic elements of output capacitor link the ripple of the output voltage. The MCP capacitors and aluminum electrolytic capacitors are applied to the buck converter and observed characteristics and the experimental results were reported.
