CHOOSING A VALUE FOR L S<br />

If the shortest time that we expect the transistor to be turned<br />

off is 2.5µs, or 5% of a 20 kHz cycle, we need an L s /R s time<br />

constant of about 0.5 µs to ensure that L s is completely<br />

discharged. Meeting this condition requires a resistor of value<br />

R s ≈ 2.5 Ω.
