Output Considerations
Outputs
The main 5 V
output can be loaded with considerable additional capacitance without
affecting the stability of the converter. The allowable external
capacitance is a function of output power. Safe values are 100 mf
for a 6.5 watt unit, 500 mf for a 30 watt unit and 1,000 mf for
a 50 or 80 watt unit. For higher external output capacitances consult
MDI Applications Engineering Department. For higher voltage or lower
voltage outputs, the capacitance is adjusted as the inverse square
of the voltage (with 5 VDC as a reference). For triple output units
having a main 5 VDC output and linear regulated dual outputs, there
are no restrictions on the capacitance that may be used externally
on the dual outputs.
