Abstract :
The input high-current low-pass filter of a power conversion equipment usually has high starting current. This paper demonstrates how with the help of a resistor (R) and a Zenerdiode (Uz) one can suppress the starting current. Optimal values of these components are calculated and verified by an experiment.
