Using the above equation, the inductor may be too large 

to provide a fast enough transient response to hold up 

V

OUT

 when input power goes away. This occurs in cases 

where the maximum V

IN

 can be high (e.g. 25V) and the 

backup voltage low (e.g. 6V). In these situations it would 

be best to choose an inductor that is smaller resulting in 

maximum peak-to-peak ripple as high as 40% of I

CHG(MAX)

Once the value for L is known, the type of inductor core 

must be selected. Ferrite cores are recommended for their 

very low core loss. Selection criteria should concentrate 

on  minimizing  copper  loss  and  preventing  saturation. 

Ferrite core material saturates “hard,” which means that 

inductance collapses abruptly when the peak design current 

is exceeded. This causes an abrupt increase in inductor 

ripple current and consequent output voltage ripple. Do 

not  allow  the  core  to  saturate.  The  saturation  current 

for the inductor should be at least 80% higher than the 

maximum regulated current, I

CHG(MAX)

. A list of inductor 

suppliers is provided in Table 3.

V

OUT

 serves as the input to the synchronous controller in 

step-down mode and as the output in step-up (backup) 

mode.  If  step-up  mode  is  used,  place 100µF  of  bulk 

(aluminum electrolytic, OS-CON, POSCAP) capacitance 

for every 2A of backup current desired. For 5V system 

applications, 100µF per 1A of backup current is recom-

mended. In addition, a certain amount of high frequency 

bypass capacitance is needed to minimize voltage ripple. 

The voltage ripple in step-up mode is:

high frequency filtering.
If  step-up  mode  is  unused,  then  the  specification  for

To prevent large voltage transients, a low ESR capacitor

tions do not offer much relief. 
Medium voltage (20V to 35V) ceramic, tantalum, OS-CON, 

and switcher-rated electrolytic capacitors can be used as 

input capacitors. Sanyo OS-CON SVP, SVPD series, Sanyo 

POSCAP TQC series, or aluminum electrolytic capacitors 

from Panasonic WA series or Cornel Dublilier SPV series 

in  parallel  with  a  couple  of  high  performance  ceramic 

capacitors can be used as an effective means of achieving 

low ESR and high bulk capacitance.
