The input voltage ripple and RMS current ripple are at
maximum when the input voltage is twice the output
voltage or 50% duty cycle.
The input capacitor provides a low impedance loop for
the edges of pulsed current drawn by the PMOS switch.
Low ESR/ESL X5R ceramic capacitors are recommended
for this function. To minimise stray inductance ,the
capacitor should be placed as closely as possible to the
VIN and GND pins of the SC4626.
