transition faster than those with higher gate charge
requirements.
• For the same size inductor, a lower value will have
fewer turns and therefore, lower winding resistance.
However, using too small of a value will require more
output capacitors to filter the output ripple, which will
force a smaller bandwidth, slower transient response
and possible instability under certain conditions.
• Lowering the current sense resistor value will de
crease the power dissipated in the resistor. However,
it will also increase the overcurrent limit and will
require larger MOSFETs and inductor components.
• Use low ESR input capacitors to minimize the power
dissipated in the capacitors ESR.
