Input Bulk Capacitor and Minimum Bulk Voltage

Bulk capacitance may consist of one or more capacitors connected in parallel, often with some inductance between them to suppress differential-mode conducted noise. The value of the input capacitor sets the minimum bulk voltage;. Setting the bulk voltage lower by using minimal input capacitance results in higher peak primary currents leading to more stress on the MOSFET switch, the transformer, and the output capacitors. Setting the bulk voltage higher by using a larger input capacitor results in higher peak current from the input source and the capacitor itself is physically larger. Compromising between size and component stresses determines the acceptable minimum input voltage. The total required value for the primary-side bulk capacitance (CIN) is selected based upon the power level of the converter (POUT), the efficiency target (η), the minimum input voltage (VIN(min)), and is chosen to maintain an acceptable minimum bulk voltage level (VBULK(min)), using Equation 3.

Equation 3. UCC28C40 UCC28C41 UCC28C42 UCC28C43 UCC28C44 UCC28C45 UCC38C40 UCC38C41 UCC38C42 UCC38C43 UCC38C44 UCC38C45

where

  • VIN(min) is the RMS value of the minimum AC input voltage (85VRMS) whose minimum line frequency is denoted as fLINE(min), equal to 47Hz

Based on Equation 3, to achieve a minimum bulk voltage of 75V, assuming 85% converter efficiency, the bulk capacitor must be larger than 126µF. this design uses a value of 180µF, with consideration for component tolerances and efficiency estimation.
