Solve for the minimum CIN:
To minimize power supply interaction a 200% larger capacitance of approximately 20 µF is used, therefore the actual ΔvIN-PP is much lower. Because high voltage ceramic capacitor selection is limited, four 4.7-µF X7R capacitors are chosen.
Determine minimum allowable RMS current rating:
The chosen components from step 8 are:
