3.2.5 Output Ripple Noise - Required
The output ripple and noise requirements listed in the below table shall be met
throughout the load ranges specified for the appropriate form factor and under all input
voltage conditions as specified in Table 3-1
.
Ripple and noise are defined as periodic or random signals over a frequency band of
10 Hz to 20 MHz. Measurements shall be made with an oscilloscope with 20 MHz of
bandwidth. Outputs should be bypassed at the connector with a 0.1μF ceramic disk
capacitor and a 10 μF electrolytic capacitor to simulate system loading.
Refer to Figure 3-1
for the differential noise measurement setup.
