capacitors have the lowest ESR of the high-value elec-
trolytic types. Use ceramic and OS-CON capacitors for
very compact, high-reliability, or wide-temperature
applications, where expense is justified. When using
very low ESR capacitors, such as ceramic or OS-CON,
check for stability while examining load-transient
response, and increase the output compensation
capacitor if needed. Table 3 lists suppliers for the vari-
ous components used with the MAX1684/MAX1685.
Ensure that the minimum capacitance value and maxi-
mum ESR values are met:

Output Diode Selection
Use a 1A external Schottky diode (MBRS130LT3 or
equivalent) for the output rectifier to pass inductor cur-
rent during the start of the second half of each cycle.
This diode operates before the internal N-channel
MOSFET completely turns on and during high-current
operation. Use a Schottky diode to avoid forward bias-
ing the internal body diode of the N-channel MOSFET.
