PRODUCTION DATA.
The boost charger needs an appropriately sized inductor for proper operation. The saturation current of the inductor should be at least 25% higher than the expected peak inductor currents recommended below if system load transients on VSTOR are expected. Because this device uses hysteretic control, the boost charger is considered naturally stable systems (single-order transfer function).
For the boost charger to operate properly, an inductor of appropriate value must be connected between LBOOST, pin 20, and VIN_DC, pin 2. The boost charger internal control circuitry is designed to control the switching behavior with a nominal inductance of 22 µH ± 20%. The inductor must have a peak current capability of > 300 mA with a low series resistance (DCR) to maintain high efficiency.
A list of inductors recommended for this device is shown in Table 2.
