11.1.2 Configure the Inductor Current

The Piezo load requires approximately 1.88 mA of average current based on the following equation:

Piezo Actuator Current Requirements (Approximate)
Iout_max = 2π × Cactuator × Vboost × ƒin_max Iout_max = 1.884956 mA
Maximum required amplifier current (estimate)
GUID-02DFBA2D-F5EF-4E5C-81E4-0FD24C928699-low.gif Ibat_max = 139.626 mA
Maximum VBAT current

This means that the inductor current limit (REXT) must be sufficiently large to support 1.88 mA.

The DRV8662EVM inductor is already fixed, but from here forward you may choose a different inductor that fits your load requirements. The maximum boost current with 80 Vp boost voltage is 20.3 mA based on the 4.7 µH / 1.8 A Coilcraft inductor selected using the following equations:
