1. Programming Output Voltage (Selecting R
shown in Figure 1 )
Use the following formula to select the appropriate resistor
values.
Select a value for R
resistor values minimize noise pickup in the sensitive feed-
back pin. (For the lowest temperature coefficient and the best
stability with time, use 1% metal film resistors.)

C. on the horizontal axis, select the maximum load current.
D. Identify the inductance region intersected by the E • T value
and the Maximum Load Current value. Each region is identi-
fied by an inductance value and an inductor code (LXX).
E. Select an appropriate inductor from the four manufacturer’s
part numbers listed in Figure 8 .
