9.2.1.2.2 Inductor Selection (L1)
  1. Select the correct inductor value selection guide from Figure 9-10, Figure 9-11, or Figure 9-12 (output voltages of 3.3 V, 5 V, or 12 V respectively). For all other voltages, see the design procedure for the adjustable version. Use the inductor selection guide for the 5-V version shown in Figure 9-11.
  2. From the inductor value selection guide, identify the inductance region intersected by the maximum input voltage line and the maximum load current line. Each region is identified by an inductance value and an inductor code (LXX). From the inductor value selection guide shown in Figure 9-11, the inductance region intersected by the 12-V horizontal line and the 500-mA vertical line is 47 μH, and the inductor code is L13.
  3. Select an appropriate inductor from the four manufacturer's part numbers listed in Table 9-7. Each manufacturer makes a different style of inductor to allow flexibility in meeting various design requirements. Listed below are some of the differentiating characteristics of each manufacturer's inductors:
    • Schott: ferrite EP core inductors; these have very low leakage magnetic fields to reduce electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and are the lowest power loss inductors
    • Renco: ferrite stick core inductors; benefits are typically lowest cost inductors and can withstand E•T and transient peak currents above rated value. Be aware that these inductors have an external magnetic field which can generate more EMI than other types of inductors.
    • Pulse: powered iron toroid core inductors; these can also be low cost and can withstand larger than normal E•T and transient peak currents. Toroid inductors have low EMI.
    • Coilcraft: ferrite drum core inductors; these are the smallest physical size inductors, available only as SMT components. Be aware that these inductors also generate EMI—but less than stick inductors.

Complete specifications for these inductors are available from the respective manufacturers. The inductance value required is 47 μH. From Table 9-7, go to the L13 line and choose an inductor part number from any of the four manufacturers shown. (In most instances, both through hole and surface mount inductors are available).
