Inductor Selection
DCMIN A good first choice for the inductor value is: Where VF is the forward voltage drop of the catch diode, L = V D1, and V OUT + VD (µH) SW is the voltage drop on the internal switch, Q1. LT3663 DC where V MIN is typical y 0.12. D is the voltage drop of the catch diode (~0.4V) and L is in µH. With this value there is no sub-harmonic For VF = 0.4V, VSW = 0.3V, and VOUT = 3.3V pulse skipping oscil ation for applications with 50% or greater duty occurs at about 24.5V. cycle. The inductor’s RMS current rating must be greater Figure 1 il ustrates switching waveforms in normal mode than the maximum load current.

For high efficiency, keep the series resistance (DCR) less than 0.1Ω. A higher value inductor is larger in size and slows transient response but reduces output voltage IL 1A/DIV ripple.
