1. NOMINAL SWITCHING FREQUENCY
Calculate switching frequency (f

Peak inductor current is detected across the sense resistor

If the calculated R
ning of the process can be iterated to choose a new R

proach the iterative process is to change the nominal f
target knowing that the switching frequency varies with oper-
ating conditions anyways.
Another method for finding a standard R

plained in the Theory of Operation section of this datasheet.
