Measure input reflected-ripple current with a simulated source inductance (Ltest) of
12 uH. Capacitor Cs offsets possible battery impedance. Measure current as shown
above.

SCOPE
Vo(-)
Use a 0.1mF @50V X7R ceramic capacitor (connected an inch away from the output
terminals of the UUT) and a 10mF @ 25V tantalum capacitor (2 inches away from
the output terminals of the UUT). Scope measurement should be made using a BNC
socket, positioned 3 inches away from output terminals of the converter.
