The low-voltage side capacitor need to
filter out the AC ripple component during the buck-mode of operation. The value of
capacitance can be calculated with Equation 11
Equation 11.
where,
iout(pk-pk) is the
peak-to-peak output current ripple
fsw is the switching
frequency of the converter
Vout(pk-pk) is the
peak-to-peak output voltage ripple
