Hi all.
I'm currently working with a Murata SMPS in a project. http://power.murata.com/data/power/oki-78sr.pdf.
What I've found is my ADC values aren't as stable as the values I was getting with the last power supply I used. I also seem to have additional noise that the VR sensor part of my circuit is picking up. I did notice the old converter I was using had two chokes on it plus a few capacitors... which lead me to wondering if additional filtering may be the key. The stability seems to get worse when things start moving.
I'm thinking the circuit board may be partially to blame and I'm looking to rework the incoming power part of the circuit already as I have identified a few more places that may be causing problems. The circuit with the ADC on the other hand was not at all changed and bench testing shows it to be accurate and stable.
The datasheet of the converter lists the switching frequency at 500 kHz.
Is there a general set of choke and capacitor values that would work for variable frequencies on the input side?
Will a choke and capacitor help on the output?
