Calculating the maximum inductor current using the actual operating conditions gives the minimum saturation
current of the inductor needed. A margin of about 20% is recommended to add. A larger inductor value is also
useful to get lower ripple current, but increases the transient response time and size as well. The following
inductors have been used with the TLV62130 and are recommended for use:

The inductor value also determines the load current at which Power Save Mode is entered:

Using Equation 8, this current level can be adjusted by changing the inductor value.
Capacitor Selection
Output Capacitor
The recommended value for the output capacitor is 22uF. The architecture of the TLV62130 allows the use of
tiny ceramic output capacitors with low equivalent series resistance (ESR). These capacitors provide low output
voltage ripple and are recommended. To keep its low resistance up to high frequencies and to get narrow
capacitance variation with temperature, it's recommended to use X7R or X5R dielectric. Using a higher value can
have some advantages like smaller voltage ripple and a tighter DC output accuracy in Power Save Mode (see
SLVA463).
Note: In power save mode, the output voltage ripple depends on the output capacitance, its ESR and the peak
inductor current. Using ceramic capacitors provides small ESR and low ripple.
Input Capacitor
For most applications, 10µF will be sufficient and is recommended, though a larger value reduces input current
ripple further. The input capacitor buffers the input voltage for transient events and also decouples the converter
from the supply. A low ESR multilayer ceramic capacitor is recommended for best filtering and should be placed
between PVIN and PGND as close as possible to those pins. Even though AVIN and PVIN must be supplied
from the same input source, it's required to place a capacitance of 0.1uF from AVIN to AGND, to avoid potential
noise coupling. An RC, low-pass filter from PVIN to AVIN may be used but is not required.
