"Average current is specified as a convenience to designers, and is only accurate in the context of the assumptions used regarding the series resistance and the first stage capacitor value."
Well said.
Thanks.

So how do I determine if I am ok or not?

Take a look at the max peak current rating on the data sheet and compare it to the peak diode current (I(D1)) according to your PSU simulation.

If I am reading the data sheet right the max peak current rating is 750mA, and my psud sim doesn't get anywhere near that, only 150 mA. Is that because it is such a short duration that it can take that much current?
Ok, thanks.
