APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
Inductor Selection
A 22 H inductor is recommended for most LT1937 appli-
cations. Although small size and high efficiency are major
concerns, the inductor should have low core losses at
1.2MHz and low DCR (copper wire resistance). Some
inductors in this category with small size are listed in
Table 1. The efficiency comparison of different inductors
is shown in Figure 4.

Capacitor Selection
The small size of ceramic capacitors makes them ideal for
LT1937 applications. X5R and X7R types are recom-
mended because they retain their capacitance over wider
voltage and temperature ranges than other types such as
Y5V or Z5U. A 1 F input capacitor and a 0.22 F output
capacitor are sufficient for most LT1937 applications.

Diode Selection
Schottky diodes, with their low forward voltage drop and
fast reverse recovery, are the ideal choices for LT1937
applications. The forward voltage drop of a Schottky diode
represents the conduction losses in the diode, while the
diode capacitance (C
losses. For diode selection, both forward voltage drop and
diode capacitance need to be considered. Schottky diodes
with higher current ratings usually have lower forward
voltage drop and larger diode capacitance, which can
cause significant switching losses at the 1.2MHz switch-
ing frequency of the LT1937. A Schottky diode rated at
100mA to 200mA is sufficient for most LT1937 applica-
tions. Some recommended Schottky diodes are listed in
Table 3.
