This white paper will focus on deriving a basic snubber for a simple switching circuit, which can help in understanding how these switches impact snubber capacitor sizing. While snubber circuits are ...

The gradient of this graph is equal to the capacitance of the capacitor. \(C= \frac{Q}{V}\) And the area under the graph is the energy stored by the capacitor.

DC-link capacitor sizing is a critical aspect of inverter design. This chapter investigates capacitor sizing for three-level Neutral-Point-Clamped and Cascaded H-Bridge inverters, based on an analysis ...

How important is the capacitor size between VCAP and VS? Will the LM74502 fail if the capacitor is either undersized or oversized? Oversized caps mean turn-on time will be even higher. Undersized caps ...

The circuit shown is used to investigate the charge and discharge of a capacitor. The supply has negligible internal resistance. When the switch is moved to position \(2\), electrons move from the ...

So based on that, I was wondering how could I best size the bulk capacitors for the motors. I'm driving the motors at 24V, and their nominal current is: 2A (peaking at 6A) for two motors and the other ...

This application note discusses methods used to calculate backup time based on capacitor size. Also see application note 3816, "Selecting a Backup Source for Real-Time Clocks." A typical ...

The MAX1945R step-down regulator achieves 10µs response time and 1% accuracy, and uses ceramic capacitors to reduce overall size. One benefit of high-frequency switching is the fast loop response.
