PRODUCTION DATA
The TPS6281x is designed for a nominal 0.47µH inductor with a switching frequency of typically 2.25MHz. Larger values can be used to achieve a lower inductor current ripple but can have a negative impact on efficiency and transient response. Smaller values than 0.47µH cause a larger inductor current ripple which causes larger negative inductor current in forced PWM mode at low or no output current. For a higher or lower nominal switching frequency, the inductance must be changed accordingly. See also Recommended Operating Conditions
The inductor selection is affected by several effects like inductor ripple current, output ripple voltage, PWM-to-PFM transition point, and efficiency. In addition, the inductor selected has to be rated for appropriate saturation current and DC resistance (DCR). Equation 8 calculates the maximum inductor current.

Calculating the maximum inductor current using the actual operating conditions gives the minimum saturation current of the inductor needed. TI recommends a margin of about 20% to add. A larger inductor value is also useful to get lower ripple current, but increases the transient response time and size as well.
