In order to design an effecient SEPIC converter, it is crucial to design the right inductor<br />

into your circuit. It is best to do it with a practical example:<br />

The SEPIC converter, in our case, has a flexible input of 5-24V and needs to deliver a<br />

stable 12V output. The current output is 0.7A with a calculated ripple of 20%.<br />

Of course, there are always 2 ways to calculate the inductor for the SEPIC converter.<br />

First is to calculate the formula of an inductor for switching regulators.<br />

<strong>Wurth</strong> Electronics recommends calculating the SEPIC converter in the Inductor Selector<br />

Calculation Tool for DC/DC Converters. That process is shown in the next slides.<br />
