4.4.2 Secondary Output Capacitor

The secondary output current (IOUT2) is sourced by COUT2 during on time TON. The secondary output capacitor ripple voltage can be calculated using Equation 13. Similar conditions apply to COUT3 for the other secondary output of this design example.

Equation 13. COUT2>IOUT2×TONmax∆VOUT2
