In this paper, we report the low stability phenomenon of digitally controlled switching mode power supply (SMPS) caused by Equivalent Serial Resistance (ESR) degradation of electrolytic capacitor. The ESR of the output capacitor stack of SMPS is known as the dumping factor in a control loop that enhances SMPS stability. However, while studying electrolytic capacitor degradation in digitally controlled...
This paper presents a new cost effective method for a failure prediction of a digitally controlled Switching Mode Power Supply (SMPS). Electrolytic capacitor is known as one of the highest failure rate components in SMPS, so we tried to detect an Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) degradation of the electrolytic capacitor directly from the data fetched to a digital controller of SMPS. With a SPICE...
