Use Equation 33 to calculate the required buck inductance for each channel based on a 30% inductor ripple current at nominal input voltages.
Equation 33.
Select a standard inductor value of 0.68 µH for
both channels. Use Equation 34 to calculate the peak inductor currents at maximum steady-state input
voltage. Subharmonic oscillation occurs with a duty cycle greater than 50% for
peak current-mode control. For design simplification, the LM25143 has an internal slope compensation ramp
proportional to the switching frequency that is added to the current sense
signal to damp any tendency toward subharmonic oscillation.
Equation 34.
Based on Equation 10, use Equation 35 to cross-check the inductance to set a slope compensation equal to the ideal one times the inductor current downslope.
