PRODUCTION DATA
The input voltage ripple is divided between capacitance and ESR. For this design VRIPPLE(cap) = 400 mV and VRIPPLE(ESR) = 100 mV. The minimum capacitance and maximum ESR are estimated by:
The RMS current in the input capacitors is estimated in Equation 29.
To achieve these values, four 1210, 2.2 µF, 100 V, X7R ceramic capacitors plus a 120 µF electrolytic capacitor are combined at the input. This provides a smaller size and overall cost than 10 ceramic input capacitors or an electrolytic capacitor with the ESR required.
