For example, an op-amp''s power supply rejection ratio decreases as the power supply noise increases in frequency; this means that an improperly bypassed op-amp could create high-frequency power-line disturbances that …
Power Supply Output Filter Capacitors Guide
The drive for greatly increased power densities in switch mode power supplies (SMPS) is dramatically pushing the switching frequency up as a method for increased power density. This increase in switching frequency now puts severe limitations on the output filter capacitor''s electrical parameters and how it is physically mounted in …
How to Connect Grounds in an Isolated Power Supply PCB …
This type of power supply is called a Class 1 power supply. In general, Y1-type capacitors are used in Class 2 equipment while Y2-type capacitors are used in Class 1 equipment. However, this might increase susceptibility to high-frequency common-mode noise, as discussed in this article .
Selecting Output Capacitors for Power Supply Applications
One question often asked of power supply vendors is "Why are the output capacitors required on a power supply and how are the capacitors selected?". In this …
