This is a simple means of calculating the required size of the input filter capacitor in a basic power supply, or calculating the peak-to-peak ripple voltage in an existing supply. It works by ...

Too small a ripple voltage results in very high peak currents in the diode (s) of the rectifier and the preceding circuit, which may create unnecessary and difficult-to-cure EMC problems.

The next step is to determine the AC ripple current attenuation to find the inductor value. Since the first-stage ceramic capacitors have a triangular ripple voltage, Equation 3 gives the second-stage ...

Hysteretic control, also known as bang-bang control or ripple regulator control, maintains the converter output voltage within the hysteresis band centered about the reference voltage.
