i would like to increase the soft start capacitor in this design to 0.1uf to double the startup time and reduce peak startup current under rated load. present value of Css is 47nf, the only value allowed in the design (attached). questions i have are
1- is 47nf the max value allowed for this design?
2- if a larger value of 0.1uf is allowed, can the cap dielectric be X7R instead of COG/NPO since COG/NPO is not available for larger cap values.
3- apart from reduced peak startup current, what other considerations, concerns are created as a result of doubling teh startup time?
