ditions for which the LM1577/LM2577 output switch
would be operating beyond its switch current rating. The
minimum operating voltage for the LM1577/LM2577 is
3.5V.
From here, proceed to step C.
2. For Adjustable version
Preliminary calculations:
The inductor selection is based on the calculation of the
following three parameters:
D
MIN
1. From Figure 9, identify the inductor code for the
region indicated by the intersection of E • T and I
This code gives the inductor value in microhenries. The
L or H prefix signifies whether the inductor is rated for a
maximum E • T of 90 V • µs (L) or 250 V • µs (H).

1. Find the lowest value inductor that is greater than L
2. Find where E • T intersects this inductor value to determine
if it has an L or H prefix. If E • T intersects both the L and H
regions, select the inductor with an H prefix.
