AS1310 − Application Information
Capacitor Selection
The convertor requires three capacitors. Ceramic X5R or X7R
types will minimize ESL and ESR while maintaining capacitance
at rated voltage over temperature. The V
IN
capacitor should be
22μF. The V
OUT
capacitor should be between 22μF and 47μF. A
larger output capacitor should be used if lower peak to peak
output voltage ripple is desired. A larger output capacitor will
also improve load regulation on V
OUT
. See Figure 23 for a list of
capacitors for input and output capacitor selection.
Figure 23:
Recommended Input and Output Capacitors
On the pin REF a 10nF capacitor with an Insulation resistance
>1GΩ is recommended.

Layout Considerations
Relatively high peak currents of 480mA (max) circulate during
normal operation of the AS1310. Long printed circuit tracks can
generate additional ripple and noise that mask correct
operation and prove difficult to “de-bug” during production
testing. Referring to Figure 2, the input loop formed by C1, V
IN
and GND pins should be minimized. Similarly, the output loop
formed by C2, V
OUT
and GND should also be minimized. Ideally
both loops should connect to GND in a “star” fashion. Finally, it
is important to return C
REF
to the GND pin directly.
