Output Inductor Selection
tor ripple current, power rating, working frequency and
efficiency. Larger inductor value normally means smaller
ripple current. However if the inductance is chosen too
large, it brings slow response and lower efficiency. Usu-
ally the ripple current ranges from 20% to 40% of the
output current. This is a design freedom which can be
decided by design engineer according to various appli-
cation requirements. The inductor value can be calcu-
lated by using the following equations:
with L=15uH is a good choice.

Output Capacitor Selection
amount of the output voltage ripple allowed during steady
state(DC) load condition as well as specification for the
load transient. The optimum design may require a couple
of iterations to satisfy both condition.
Based on DC Load Condition
condition is determined by equation(3).
series resistance,C
such as Aluminum Electrolytic,POSCAP and OSCON
types are used, the amount of the output voltage ripple
is dominated by the first term in equation(3) and the
second term can be neglected.
sen as output capacitors, the ESR and inductor current
typically determines the output voltage ripple.

tor. For example, SANYO electrolytic capacitor
