The smaller the ΔIL, the Inductor core loss(iron loss) and loss due to ESR of the output capacitor, ΔVPP will be reduced.
ΔVPPis shown in the next expression.

(ESR: Equivalent series resistance of output capacitor, CO: Output condenser capacity)
ΔIL is set to approximately 10% to 40% of IO. Generally, even if ΔIL is somewhat large, ΔVPP of the target is satisfied
because the ceramic capacitor has super-low ESR. In that case, it is also possible to use it by the discontinuous action.
The inductance value of the inductor can be set small as an advantage.
It contributes to the miniaturization of the set because of the large rated current, small inductor is possible if the inductance
value is small.The disadvantagesare the increase in core losses in the inductor, the decrease in maximum output current,
and the deterioration of theresponse. When other capacitors (electrolytic capacitor, tantalum capacitor, and
electroconductive polymer etc) are used for output capacitor CO,check theESRfromthe manufacturer's data sheetand
determine the ΔIL to fitwithin the acceptable range of ΔVPP.Especially inthe case ofelectrolytic capacitor, because the
capacity decrease at the low temperature is remarkable, ΔVPPincreases. When using capacitor at the low temperature, it is
necessary to note this.The maximum output electric current is limited to the overcurrent protection working current as
shown in the next expression.

The shield type (closed magnetic circuit type) is the recommended type of inductor. There is no problem in the open
magnetic circuit type if the application is low cost and does not consider noise.In that case, there is magnetic field radiation
between the parts.There should be enough space between the parts.
For ferrite core inductor type, in particular, please note the magnetic saturation.It is necessary not to saturate the core in
allcases.Care must be taken giventhe provisions of thecurrent rating because it differs according to each manufacturer.
Pleaseconfirm the rated current at the maximum ambient temperature of the application to the manufacturer.
2. SetofoutputCapacitor CO constant
The output capacitor is selected on the basis of ESR that is required from the expression (c).ΔVPP can be reduced by
using a capacitor with a small ESR.The ceramic capacitor is the best selection that meets this requirement.The ceramic
capacitor contributes to the miniaturization of the set because it has small ESR.Please confirm frequency characteristic of
ESR from the datasheet of the manufacturer, and select the one that ESR in the switching frequency used is low.It is
necessary to note the ceramic capacitor because the DC biasing characteristic is remarkable. For the voltage rating of the
ceramic capacitor, twice or more of the maximum output voltage is usually required.By selecting those high voltage rating,
it is possible to reduce the influence of DC bias characteristics.Moreover, in order to maintain good temperature
characteristics, the one with the characteristic of X7R and X5R or more is recommended.Because the voltage rating of a
mass ceramic capacitor is low, the selection becomes difficult in the application with high output voltage. In that case,
please select electrolytic capacitor. Please select the one with voltage rating of 1.2 times or more of the output voltage
when you use electrolytic capacitor.Electrolytic capacitors are high blocking voltage, a large capacity, and the little DC
biasing characteristic, and are generally cheap.Because main failure mode is OPEN, it is effective to use electrolytic
capacitor selection in the application when reliability is demandedsuch as in-vehicle. There are disadvantages as, ESR is
relatively large, and decrease of capacity at low temperatures.It is necessary to note this so that the low temperature, and
in particular, ΔVPP may increase.Moreover, the feature of this capacitor is to define the lifetime because there is possible
dry up. A very excellent characteristic of the tantalum capacitor and the electro-conductive polymer is the thermal
characteristic unlike the electrolytic capacitor.The design is facilitated because there is little DC biasing characteristic like
the electrolytic capacitor.Typically, for voltage rating, a tantalum capacitor is selected twice the output voltage, and for
conductive polymer is selected 1.5 times more than the output voltage.The disadvantage of the tantalum capacitor is that
the failure mode is SHORT, and the breakdown voltage is low.It is not generally selected in the application that reliability
such as in-vehicle is demanded.The disadvantage of the electroconductive polymer is that the failure mode is
SHORT(SHORT happens by accident chiefly, though it is OPEN),the breakdown voltage is low , and generally
expensive.Although in most cases ignored, these capacitors are rated in ripple current. The RMS values of the ripple
electric current obtained in the next expression must not exceed the ratings ripple electric current.
