PRODUCTION DATA
The inductor ripple current is filtered by the output capacitor. A higher inductor ripple current means the output capacitor must have a ripple current rating higher than the inductor ripple current. See the Recommended Operating Conditions for recommended inductor values.
Calculate the RMS and peak currents through the inductor using Equation 3 and Equation 4. Make sure that the inductor is rated to handle these currents.
During transient, short-circuit conditions, the inductor current can increase up to the current limit of the device, so choose an inductor with a saturation current higher than the peak current under current limit condition.
