I want to optimize an existing design based on TPS23754 in terms of cost and size.
Details regarding the design:
Input voltage: 36-57V
Output voltage: 12V
Reference: TPS23754EVM-383 EVM
Please address the following questions regarding the optimizations:
1. Can I replace all the leaded aluminium capacitors with SMD.
2. Is SMD better than thru hole for aluminum caps for EMI/EMC
3. Can I replace all aluminium caps on 12V with ceramic. What parameters should I check?
4. The existing design used "organic polymer Al cap" with very high current rating(4.65A which may not ). Can I use multiple normal Aluminium caps
5. The existing design design is used wide band chokes and common mode chokes to meet EMI/EMC. Please suggest any ferrite beads to replace them to reduce space.
cheers
