Calculates the capacitor size for a given peak-to-peak ripple voltage.
capForRipple(
1V,
100Hz,
100mA
)
ripplePP | the desired peak-to-peak ripple voltage. |
freq | charge frequency. For example in case of full wave rectification of mains supply it's 100/120Hz, in half wave 50/60Hz. |
load | load current. Because usually the ripple is small, a constant current load can be assumed even in case of resistive load. |
return value | the minimal size of the supply capacitor. |
