Selecting the Series Capacitor (C6)

The series capacitor is chosen to limit the ripple current to 5% of the maximum input voltage. Using Equation 47, the minimum capacitance is 1.5 µF. Using Equation 48, the RMS current is calculated to be 1.63 A. A 2.2-µF ceramic capacitor in a 1206 package is selected.
