7 Monitor the Inductor Current
The inductor’s current can be monitored or viewed on a scope with a current probe. Remove R9, and
install an appropriate current loop across the two large pads where R9 was located. In this way the
inductor’s ripple current and peak current can be accurately determined.
8 Scope Probe Adapters
Scope probe adapters are provided on this evaluation board for monitoring the waveform at the SW pin,
and at the circuit’s output (V
OUT
), without using the probe’s ground lead that can pick up noise from the
switching waveforms.
