mechanical and electrical considerations. From a
mechanical perspective, smaller inductor values generally
correspond to smaller physical size. Since the inductor is
often one of the largest components in the regulation system,
a minimum inductor value is particularly important in
space−constrained applications.
perspective, the maximum current slew rate through the
output inductor for a buck regulator is given by Equation 10.
SlewRate
regulator’s ability to slew current through the output
inductor in response to output load transients. Consequently,
output capacitors must supply the load current until the
inductor current reaches the output load current level. This
results in larger values of output capacitance to maintain
tight output voltage regulation. In contrast, smaller values of
inductance increase the regulator’s maximum achievable
slew rate and decrease the necessary capacitance, at the
expense of higher ripple current. The peak−to−peak ripple
current for the NCP3030A is given by the following
equation:

categorized into dc losses and ac losses. A good first order
approximation of the inductor losses can be made using the
DC resistance as they usually contribute to 90% of the losses
