Equation 49

Typically CIN is dimensioned to keep the maximum peak-peak voltage across the input filter

in the order of 5% VIN_MAX.

6.6.2

Inductor selection

The inductor current ripple flowing into the output capacitor determines the output voltage

ripple (please refer to Section 6.6.3). Usually the inductor value is selected in order to keep

the current ripple lower than 20% - 40% of the output current over the input voltage range.

The inductance value can be calculated by Equation 50:

Equation 50

Where TON and TOFF are the on and off time of the internal power switch. The maximum

current ripple, at fixed VOUT, is obtained at maximum TOFF that is at minimum duty cycle

(see Section 6.6.1: Input capacitor selection to calculate minimum duty). So fixing

IL = 20%

to 40% of the maximum output current, the minimum inductance value can be calculated:

Equation 51

where fSW is the switching frequency 1/(TON + TOFF).

For example for VOUT = 3.3 V, VIN = 12 V, IO = 2 A and FSW = 500 kHz the minimum

inductance value to have

IL = 30% of IO is about 8.2 µH.

The peak current through the inductor is given by:

Equation 52

So if the inductor value decreases, the peak current (that has to be lower than the current

limit of the device) increases. The higher is the inductor value, the higher is the average

output current that can be delivered, without reaching the current limit.
