Applications Information
CHOOSING AN INDUCTANCE VALUE
The current ripple present in the output filter inductor is
determined by the input voltage, output voltage, switching
frequency and inductance according to the following equa-
tion:
where ∆I

stage, V
switching frequency and L
filter inductor. Knowing the current ripple is important for
inductor selection since the peak current through the induc-
tor is the load current plus one half the ripple current. Care
must be taken to ensure the peak inductor current does not
reach a level high enough to trip the current limit circuitry of
the LM2853. As an example, consider a 5V to 1.2V conver-
sion and a 550 kHz switching frequency. According to Table
1, a 4.7 µH inductor may be used. Calculating the expected
peak-to-peak ripple,
OUTPUT FILTER CAPACITORS
The recommended capacitors that may be used in the output
filter with the LM2853 are limited in value and ESR range
according to Table 1.

The maximum inductor current for a 3A load would therefore
be 3A plus 177 mA, 3.177A. As shown in the ripple equation,
the current ripple is inversely proportional to inductance.
OUTPUT FILTER INDUCTORS
Once the inductance value is chosen, the key parameter for
selecting the output filter inductor is its saturation current
(I
turer as the current at which the inductance of the coil falls to
a certain percentage of the nominal inductance. The I
an inductor used in an application should be greater than the
maximum expected inductor current to avoid saturation. Be-
low is a table of inductors that are suitable in LM2853
applications.
Below are some examples of capacitors that can typically be
used in an LM2853 application.
