Input Capacitor
Bypass the input of the LT8606 circuit with a ceramic
capacitor of X7R or X5R type. Y5V types have poor performance over temperature and applied voltage, and should
not be used. A 4.7μF to 10μF ceramic capacitor is adequate to bypass the LT8606 and will easily handle the ripple current. Note that larger input capacitance is required
when a lower switching frequency is used. If the input
power source has high impedance, or there is significant

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
inductance due to long wires or cables, additional bulk
capacitance may be necessary. This can be provided with
a low performance electrolytic capacitor.
Step-down regulators draw current from the input supply in pulses with very fast rise and fall times. The input
capacitor is required to reduce the resulting voltage ripple at the LT8606 and to force this very high frequency
switching current into a tight local loop, minimizing EMI. …
