10.2.2.2.1 Inductor Selection

Select the inductor based on its ratings for dc resistance and saturation current. The dc resistance of the inductor directly influences the efficiency of the converter. Therefore, select an inductor with lowest dc resistance for highest efficiency.

Equation 6 calculates the maximum inductor current under static load conditions. The saturation-current rating of the inductor must be higher than the maximum inductor current as calculated with Equation 7. TI makes this recommendation because during heavy load transients, the inductor current rises above the calculated value.

Equation 6. TPS62400-Q1 TPS62402-Q1 TPS62404-Q1 TPS62405-Q1 q6_deltai_slvsa67.gif

where

  • ΔIL = peak-to-peak inductor ripple current
  • L = inductor value
  • fSW = switching frequency (2.25 MHz typical)
Equation 7. TPS62400-Q1 TPS62402-Q1 TPS62404-Q1 TPS62405-Q1 q7_ilmax_slvsa67.gif

where

  • ILmax = maximum inductor current and the highest inductor current occurs at maximum VIN

Open-core inductors have a soft saturation characteristic and they can usually handle higher inductor currents versus a comparable shielded inductor.

A more conservative approach is to select the inductor current rating just for the maximum switch current of the corresponding converter. Take into consideration that the core material from inductor to inductor differs, and this difference has an impact on the efficiency.

See Table 7 and the typical application circuit examples for possible inductors.
