The output voltage is set by a resistor-divider network
from the output to GND with FB at the center tap (R4
and R5 in Figure 4). Select R4 between 5kΩ and 15kΩ
and calculate R5 by:

Additionally, to minimize error, R6 and R7 should be
chosen such that:
There are several parameters that must be examined
when determining which inductor is to be used: input
voltage, output voltage, load current, switching fre-
quency, and LIR. LIR is the ratio of inductor current rip-
ple to DC load current. A higher LIR value allows for a
smaller inductor but results in higher losses and higher
output ripple. A good compromise between size and
efficiency is a 30% LIR. Once all the parameters are
chosen, the inductor value is determined as follows:
where f
value close to the calculated value. The exact inductor
value is not critical and can be adjusted in order to
make trade-offs among size, cost, and efficiency.
Lower inductor values minimize size and cost, but also
increase the output ripple and reduce the efficiency
due to higher peak currents. On the other hand, higher
inductor values increase efficiency, but eventually
resistive losses due to extra turns of wire exceed the
benefit gained from lower AC current levels. Find a low-
loss inductor having the lowest possible DC resistance
that fits the allotted dimensions. Ferrite cores are often
the best choice, although powdered iron is inexpensive
and can work well up to 300kHz. The chosen inductor’s
saturation current rating must exceed the peak inductor
current determined as:
The input filter capacitor reduces peak currents drawn
from the power source and reduces noise and voltage
ripple on the input caused by the circuit’s switching.
The input capacitor must meet the ripple current
requirement (I
