Title: Capacitor size vs Ripple voltage
Post by: Freshman on April 18, 2024, 08:20:44 am

I have a question.

Does the size of an MLCC 0201 capacitor when compared to 0603 MLCC capacitor of the same value have produce different effects on ripple voltage?

Like, does the size of the capacitor (0201 vs 0603) have any impact on the ripple voltage of a power rail?
