9.2.2.1.1 Inductor Current in Step-Down Mode

Use Equation 2 to calculate inductor peak-ripple current in the step-down, or buck, mode (Ipk_buck).

Equation 2. GUID-5A692A46-D7A9-4EB5-A819-7997FD2E684B-low.gif

where

  • VOUT is the output voltage.
  • L is the value of the inductor.
  • Dbuck is the duty cycle (refer to Equation 3).
  • fS is the switching frequency.
Equation 3. GUID-F3058B63-86FD-4448-9D1A-B14323528617-low.gif

The maximum peak-ripple current of the inductor (Ipk) occurs when the duty cycle is at the minimum value, specifically when the input voltage (VIN) is at the maximum value which yields the value shown in Equation 4.

Equation 4. GUID-A6210301-8F90-4C3F-A41B-5E8AFB5AE4D1-low.gif

Substitute the values for fS, L, and Dbuck, in Equation 2 to find the peak-ripple current as shown in Equation 5.

Equation 5. GUID-F544EBED-FE82-46B8-909A-E69E69A6C6E7-low.gif

The power dissipations can be determined by the RMS current of the inductor. Use Equation 6 to calculate the RMS current of the inductor in buck mode (Irms_buck).

Equation 6. GUID-3BE620EF-59AE-410D-828F-37237D483277-low.gif

Use Equation 7 to calculate the approximate power dissipation of the inductor in buck-mode (Ploss_L_buck).

Equation 7. GUID-01E6B0DA-E037-4F5F-9228-FDAA9ACEE247-low.gif
