PRODUCTION DATA.
Synchronous buck power inductors are typically sized for approximately 30% peak-to-peak ripple current (IRIPPLE)
Given this target ripple current, the required inductor size can be calculated in Equation 3.
Selecting a standard 400-nH inductor value, solve for IRIPPLE = 3.5 A
The RMS current through the inductor is approximated by Equation 4.
