UCC28742: Input Bulk Capacitance Calculation

Part Number: UCC28742

Hi team.

I think the formula in 8.2.2.4 is wrong. There shouldn't be a "2" in front of Vin(min). Right?

Br,

  • Hello Naizeng,

    The formula for Cbulk is correct with "2" in front of Vin(min).
    Here, Vin is an RMS value. 

    The denominator is subtracting the energy of the minimum bulk valley voltage from the energy of the minimum line peak voltage.
    The line peak is sqrt(2)*Vin(min).  The square of [sqrt(2)*Vin(min)] is 2*Vin(min)^2. 

    The formula in 8.2.2.4 is correct.
