Input Capacitor Selection (C1, C6)

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:

Equation 27. GUID-B4519ED8-DC79-4331-AEE1-88C852A4994C-low.gif
Equation 28. GUID-58914ABA-B2C3-4CB9-A51F-E8A809314891-low.gif

The rms current in the input capacitors is estimated in Equation 29.

Equation 29. GUID-BC5E3DC7-74EF-45A4-8600-5376956BB0C5-low.gif

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.
