In TPSF12Cx quickstart calculator Rev A2.xlsm, what's the definition of RPAR and CPAR in CM choke model. Could you draw the equivalent model to let me know the location of RPAR and CPAR?

Hi Yee,
Cpar is the effective parasitic capacitance from the switch node to chassis ground, and Rpar is the associated series resistance. Cpar is the critical parameter here as it sets the amplitude of the common-mode (CM) current for a given dv/dt of the switch voltage. 100pF is a typical value.

Hi Yee,
That’s the CM choke parasitic capacitance and parasitic resistance. The impedance vs. frequency curve enables derivation of these parameters (Rpar is the peak impedance at resonance and Cpar sets the resonant frequency with Lcm).
