inductor will have a larger physical size, higher
series resistance, and/or lower saturation current.
A good rule for determining the inductor value is
to allow the peak-to-peak ripple current in the
inductor to be approximately 10~30% of the
maximum output current. Also, make sure that
the peak inductor current is below the current
limit of the device. The inductance value can be
calculated as:
L  VOUT  (1 VOUT )
fSW  IL
VIN
(25)
Where ΔIL is the peak-to-peak inductor ripple
current.
Choose an inductor that will not saturate under
the maximum inductor peak current. The peak
inductor current can be calculated as:
ILP
 IOUT

VOUT  (1
2  fSW  L
VOUT )

The inductors listed in Table 1 are highly
recommended for the high efficiency they can
provide.

Typical Design Parameter Tables
The following tables include recommended
component values for typical output voltages
(1.0V, 1.2V, 1.8V, 3.3V) and switching
frequencies (600kHz, 800kHz, and 1MHz). Refer
to Tables 2-4 for design cases without external
ramp compensation and Tables 5-6 for design
cases with external ramp compensation.
External ramp is not needed when high-ESR
capacitors, such as electrolytic or POSCAPs are
used. External ramp is needed when low-ESR
capacitors, such as ceramic capacitors are used.
For cases not listed in this datasheet, a calculator
in excel spreadsheet can also be requested
through a local sales representative to assist with
the calculation.
