Lower inductor for SPV1040

I am using the simulator for converting solar cells into 5V output to a USB plug. The simulator calculates a 648uH inductor which is VERY large, expensive and hard to find. How can I use a more standard inductor, like the 10uH stated in the datasheet for this design?

#spv1040 #solar

Hello,

eDesignSuite calculates the optimized components for your design, according to different criteria.

However, if you prefer to use another inductor, you can click on the inductor value and select another one from the list.

In this way the solution is redesigned around your choice.

Best regards,
