TPS62135: Can we use a 3.1A Itemp/3.7A Isat inductor for our design?

Hi team,

i have a customer using 2x TPS62135 and needs to find the best sized inductor for their application as space is a major constraint.

their design requirements are:

input: 6-9V

output: 3.6V (1st regulator) and 5.5V (2nd regulator)

output current max: 2A (max)

temperature: 60C expected

Can they reliably use the last inductor (1277AS-H-1R0M (DFE322512C) recommended in Table 3 (list of inductors) on page 14 of the datasheet?

the concern is the current limit of the inductor is too low. 

Thanks,

Kevin Lai
