10.4 Output Ripple Measurements
10.4.1 Ripple Measurement Technique
A ripple probe, which included a 1.0 µF Aluminum electrolytic capacitor in parallel with
a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor, was used for all ripple measurements. The probe was
located at the end of the DC output cable assembly.

ground for ripple measurement, and two parallel decoupling capacitors added).
