PRODUCTION DATA
For this application, input voltage is 5-V rail with 10% variation, output is a single IR LED, and the inductor current ripple requirement is less than 60% of maximum LED current.
Use Equation 12 to calculate the minimum value of the output inductor (LMIN).
where
With the chosen inductor value, the user can calculate the actual inductor current ripple using Equation 13.
In this design, VIN(max) = 5.5 V, VOUT = 1.85 V, ILED = 1 A, choose KIND = 0.6. The calculated inductance is 2.046 µH. A 2.2-µH inductor is chosen. With this inductor, the ripple, peak, and RMS currents of the inductor are 0.56 A, 1.28 A, and 1.01 A, respectively.
