Using Figure 2, the value of RSENSE is: ler is driven by the load requirement and begins with the selection of L1 and RSENSE (= R1).

With the current comparator monitoring the voltage devel- The operating frequency and inductor selection are inter- oped across RSENSE, the threshold of the comparator related in that higher operating frequencies permit the use determines the inductor’s peak current. The output cur- of a smaller inductor for the same amount of inductor rent the controller can provide is given by: ripple current. However, this is at the expense of efficiency due to an increase in MOSFET gate charge losses. 0 1 . V 2 I I RIPPLE OUT = − R The inductance value also has a direct effect on ripple SENSE 2 current.

Accepting larger values of IRIPPLE allows the use of low inductances, but results in However, for operation that is above 40% duty cycle, slope higher output voltage ripple and greater core losses. A compensation effect has to be taken into consideration to reasonable starting point for setting ripple current is 7
