OUTPUT FILTER DESIGN (INDUCTOR AND OUTPUT CAPACITOR)
The device is optimized to operate with inductors of 2.2µH to 4.7µH and output capacitors of 10µF to 22µF.
For operation with a 2.2µH inductor, a 22µF capacitor is suggested.
Inductor Selection
The selected inductor has to be rated for its DC resistance and saturation current. The DC resistance of the
inductance will influence directly the efficiency of the converter. Therefore an inductor with lowest DC resistance
should be selected for highest efficiency.
Equation 6 calculates the maximum inductor current under static load conditions. The saturation current of the
inductor should be rated higher than the maximum inductor current as calculated with Equation 7. This is
recommended because during heavy load transient the inductor current will rise above the calculated value.

= Maximum Inductor current
The highest inductor current will occur at maximum Vin.
Open core inductors have a soft saturation characteristic and they can usually handle higher inductor currents
versus a comparable shielded inductor.
A more conservative approach is to select the inductor current rating just for the maximum switch current of the
corresponding converter. It must be considered, that the core material from inductor to inductor differs and will
have an impact on the efficiency especially at high switching frequencies.
Refer to Table 5 and the typical applications for possible inductors.
