To determine whether the current through the inductor is within rated values, it is necessary to determine the
peak value of the ripple current as well as the peak-to-peak values of the ripple current that affect the output
ripple voltage. The peak value and peak-to-peak value of the ripple current can be determined by the following
formulas.
Peak value : I
L
Peak-to-peak value : ∆IL
Example: Using the CDRH104R-150
15 µH (allowable tolerance ±30%) , rated current = 3.6 A
