Application information

41/53

The saturation current of the inductor should be greater than IL,PEAK not only in case of hard

saturation core inductors. Using soft-ferrite cores it is possible (but not advisable) to push

the inductor working near its saturation current.

In Table 13 some inductors suitable for notebook applications are listed.

In Pulse-Skip Mode, low inductance values produce a better efficiency versus load curve,

while higher values result in higher full-load efficiency because of the smaller current ripple.

Input capacitor selection

In a buck topology converter the current that flows through the input capacitor is pulsed and

with zero average value. The RMS input current can be calculated as follows:

Equation 33

Neglecting the second term, the equation 10 is reduced to:

Equation 34

The losses due to the input capacitor are thus maximized when the duty-cycle is 0.5:

Equation 35

The input capacitor should be selected with a RMS rated current higher than ICINRMS(max).

Tantalum capacitors are good in terms of low ESR and small size, but they occasionally can

burn out if subjected to very high current during operation. Multi-Layers-Ceramic-Capacitors

(MLCC) have usually a higher RMS current rating with smaller size and they remain the best

choice. The drawback is their quite high cost.
