The inductor and the output capacitor together provide a low-pass filter. To simplify this process, Table 9-3 outlines possible inductor and capacitor value combinations for most applications. Checked cells represent combinations that are proven for stability by simulation and lab testing. Further combinations must be checked for each individual application.
