LM25148: LM25148

Part Number: LM25148

Hi,

I have some questions regarding designing of LM25148

  1. Is it necessary to have RC network across inductor and current sense resistor?

    The datasheet says that if need to measure current using inductor DCR current sensing then need to use it. I have very tight space so i don't want to use any extra component on the board.
  2. I don't know the nominal voltages. It can be any in between 9V to 36V because i have to connect it with various power battery sources so each battery source has different nominal voltages so what i should consider in that case nominal voltages?
  3. In my previous design, the inductor is collapsing. I did some research and i believe it is because of saturation current exceeding. As soon, the current raise above 9A then board shutdown or cause abnormal output. I have to design a board for 15A current. What should be the ISAT and current rating of inductor is safe considering input voltages 9V to 36V and output 7.4V or 8.4V
