SNVSBL7A March 2020 – August 2020 LM25184
PRODUCTION DATA
Select an input capacitance using Equation 25 to limit the ripple voltage amplitude to less than 5% of the input voltage when operating at nominal input voltage.
Substituting the input current at full load, switching frequency, peak primary current, and peak-to-peak ripple specification gives CIN greater than 5 μF. Considering the voltage coefficient of ceramic capacitors, select a 10-µF, 50-V, X7R ceramic capacitor in 1210 case size. Equation 26 gives the input capacitor RMS ripple current.
