CALCULATIONS
Maximum ripple voltage
Urmax = 0.2 Un
Urmax =
V
The maximum ripple voltage of the selected capacitor must be in any case higher than the ripple voltage of your application
Ratio Uw/Un
ρ = Uw/Un
ρ=

Hot spot temperature
θHS = θamb+(Pj+Pd)xRth
θHS =
°C
The hot spot temperature must be in any case lower than 85°C
