●Selection of inductor L
The value of inductor has significant influence on the input ripple current. As
shown by Equation (1), the larger the inductor and the higher the switching

frequency, the inductor ripple current ∆IL becomes increasingly lower.
ΔIL = (VOUT − VIN ) × VIN  [ A]    ・・・・・   (1)
L × VOUT × f SW
Expressing efficiency as shown by Equation (2), peak input current is given
as Equation (3).

where, L: Reactance value [H],
VOUT : DC/DC output voltage [V],
VIN: Input voltage [V],
IOUT: Output load current (total output current) [A],
IIN: Input current [A], and
FSW: Oscillation frequency [Hz]

Note: If a current in excess of the rated current of the inductor applies to the coil, the inductor will cause magnetic
saturation, resulting in efficiency degradation.
Select an inductor with an adequate margin so that peak current will not exceed the rated current of the
inductor.
Note: To reduce power dissipation from and increase efficiency of inductor, select an inductor with low resistance
component (DCR or ACR).
●Selection of output capacitor COUT

VOUT
Select a capacitor on the output side taking into account the stability region
of output voltage and equivalent series resistance necessary to smooth
ripple voltage. Note that higher output ripple voltage may result in a drop in
LED pin voltage, making it impossible to supply set LED current.
The output ripple voltage ∆VOUT is given by Equation (4).

●Selection of switching MOSFET transistors
There will be no problem for switching MOSFET transistors having absolute maximum rating higher than rated current of the
inductor L and VF higher than “COUT breakdown voltage + Rectifier diode”. However, to achieve high-speed switching, select
transistors with small gate capacity (injected charge amount).
Note: Rated current larger than overcurrent protection setting current is recommended.
Note: Selecting transistors with low on resistance can obtain high efficiency.
●Selection of rectifier diodes
Select Schottky barrier diodes having current capability higher than the rated current of the inductor L and inverse
breakdown voltage higher that COUT breakdown voltage, particularly having low forward voltage VF.
