Inductor Selection

The peak-to-peak ripple is chosen to be 30% of the maximum input current.

Equation 34. GUID-B331B911-933D-446A-BE72-C268ACA533DD-low.gif

The minimum inductor size can be estimated using Equation 35.

Equation 35. GUID-B6D0D1E9-C790-4015-9677-F84B8128706B-low.gif

The next higher standard inductor value of 10 μH is selected. The ripple current for nominal and minimum VIN is estimated by Equation 36 and Equation 37.

Equation 36. GUID-88C91143-6DAF-4A46-B6E8-D093518EA6CC-low.gif
Equation 37. GUID-450C94A2-CB66-47F9-B5D6-4CE9CC1033A4-low.gif

The worst case peak-to-peak ripple current occurs at 50% duty cycle (VIN = 12.25 V) and is estimated as 1.02 A. Worst case RMS current through the inductor is approximated by Equation 38.

Equation 38. GUID-5A26AD9A-1C3D-4A1D-A8BB-6A99B3F553A5-low.gif

The worst case RMS inductor current is 6.13 Arms. The peak inductor current is estimated by Equation 39.

Equation 39. GUID-D8BA3971-972E-4494-982A-10CD51E2D1CB-low.gif

A 10-μH inductor with a minimum RMS current rating of 6.13 A and minimum saturation current rating of 6.57 A must be selected. A TDK RLF12560T-100M-7R5 7.5-A 10-μH inductor is selected.

This inductor power dissipation is estimated by Equation 40.

Equation 40. GUID-B01DAD52-0DAB-4507-9653-59930D4B19C3-low.gif

The TDK RLF12560T-100M-7R5 12.4-mΩ DCR dissipates 466-mW of power.
