for the inductor. To do this we select an acceptable
inductor ripple current. The calculations below assume
50% of I
and
For our example:
L
We will select an inductor value of 2.2µH to reduce the
ripple current, which can be calculated as follows:

For our example:

Next we will calculate the maximum output capacitor
equivalent series resistance (ESR). This is determined by
calculating the remaining static and transient tolerance
allowances. Then the maximum ESR is the smaller of the
calculated static ESR (R

tolerance of the feedback resistors, thus 2% total for
1% feedback resistors.

transient is full load. For half of full load, divide the I

We will select a value of 12.5m
design, which would be achieved by using two 25m
output capacitors in parallel.
