Ripple reduction with LC filter


This seems like it must be a common problem but I don't find a clear answer anywhere, maybe my approach is wrong.


I have a DC-DC regulator in my circuit, which has a ripple of 50mV at 200kHz, the current draw is 500mA, voltage output 5V. I want to add a lowpass LC filter to reduce this. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/eb/Lowpass_Filter_LC.svg


However I struggle at determining which values I should selected, is there a standard approach in determining these values based on the ripple frequency or otherwise, or how should I go about determining these?


Cheers Sam

arduino - Can I use TI's cc2541 BLE as micro controller to perform operations/ processing instead of ATmega328P AU to save cost?

I am using arduino pro mini (which contains Atmega328p AU ) along with cc2541(HM-10) to process and transfer data over BLE to smartphone. I...
