Optimization of metallized film capacitor connection to reduce stray inductance

In power electronic applications, due to switching components, the inverter dc-bus generates current pulses at low frequencies and high frequencies (HFs). Usually, a dc-bus capacitor is sized to absorb the current peaks at the switching frequency and to stabilize the dc voltage. For decoupling the HF harmonics, an additional capacitor is required. This decoupling capacitor needs to have a low impe...
