2.6 Input Capacitor Selection

The input capacitor determines the supply ripple voltage. For this design an input capacitance of 220 µF is selected using low ESR ceramic capacitors. Equation 14 is used to calculate the maximum supply voltage ripple.

Equation 14. ∆VSUPPLY=VLOAD32×LM×CIN×fsw2=24V32×2.6μH×220μF×440KHz2=6.7mV
