APPLICATION INFORMATION (continued)
For a typical notebook charger application, the total stray inductance of the adapter output wire and the PCB
connections is normally 5–12 µH, and the total effective resistance of the input connections is 0.15–0.5 Ω.
Figure 30(a) demonstrates that a higher Ci helps to damp the voltage spike. Figure 30(b) demonstrates the
effect of the input stray inductance Li on the input voltage spike. The dashed curve in Figure 30(b) represents
the worst case for Ci=40 µF. Figure 30(c) shows how the resistance helps to suppress the input voltage spike.

Minimizing the input stray inductance, increasing the input capacitance and using high-ESR input capacitors
helps to suppress the input voltage spike.
