U U W U APPLICATIO S I FOR ATIO
The inductor current ripple is typically set for 20% to 40% extremely low ESR and are available in small footprints. A of the maximum inductor current (IP). High frequency 2.2µF to 10µF output capacitor is sufficient for most ferrite core inductor materials reduce frequency depen- applications. Larger values up to 22µF may be used to dent power losses compared to cheaper powdered iron obtain extremely low output voltage ripple and improve types, improving efficiency. The inductor should have low transient response. An additional phase lead capacitor ESR (series resistance of the windings) to reduce the I2R may be required with output capacitors larger than 10µF power losses, and must be able to handle the peak to maintain acceptable phase margin. X5R and X7R inductor current without saturating. Molded chokes and dielectric materials are preferred for their ability to main- some chip inductors usually do not have enough core to tain capacitance over wide voltage and temperature ranges. support the peak inductor currents of 850mA seen on the Low ESR input capacitors reduce input switching noise LTC3400/LTC3400B. To minimize radiated noise, use a and reduce the peak current drawn from the battery. It toroid, pot core or shielded bobbin inductor.
