COMPONENT SELECTION
INPUT CAPACITOR
In continuous mode, the source current of the high-side
MOSFET is a square wave of duty cycle V
large voltage transients, use a low ESR input capacitor sized for
the maximum rms current. The maximum rms capacitor
current is given by I
OUTPUT INDUCTOR
In high switching applications, if the inductor is too big, the
dI/dt is too low and cannot respond to load changes quickly. If
the inductor is too small, the output ripple would be high.
Therefore, if good transient response is needed, smaller
inductors and larger capacitors are better, within the constraint
of the maximum allowed ripple current in the capacitor and the
maximum dissipation of the core (core temperature).
The output inductor can be chosen according to the following
equation:

Generally, the voltage ripple caused by the capacitance or ESR
depends on the capacitor chosen.
ESR affects the output voltage ripple; thus, an MLCC capacitor
is recommended because of its low ESR.
During a load transient on the output, the amount of
capacitance needed is determined by the maximum energy
stored in the inductor. The capacitance must be sufficient to
absorb the change in inductor current when a high current to
low current transition occurs and to supply the load when a low
current to high current transition occurs.

MOSFET SELECTION
The choice of MOSFET directly affects the dc-to-dc converter
performance. The MOSFET must have low on resistance

For the low-side (synchronous) MOSFET, the dominant loss is
the conduction loss. It can be calculated as
The gate charge loss is approximated by the following equation:
