8.2.1.2.5 Peak Current Rating of Inductor

With output capacitance, it is possible to calculate the charge current during start-up and determine the minimum saturation current rating for the inductor. The start-up charging current is approximated by Equation 9.

Table 3. Inductor Requirements

SYMBOL PARAMETER VALUE UNIT
L Inductance 400 nH
IL(rms) RMS current (thermal rating) 10.05 A
IL(peak) Peak current (saturation rating) 11.8 A

A PG0083.401, 400-nH inductor is selected for its small size, low DCR (3.0 mΩ) and high-current handling capability (17-A thermal, 27-A saturation).
