Do all of the components have to be precisely what is in the schematic.
No, in fact they may need to be quite different! They may also be allowed to be quite different.
The component values will differ depending on the voltages (i.e. both of them) and output current.
The datasheet will answer this question (or at lease give you recommended values)
It was my accustomed belief that capacitor values never really mattered on power supplies as long as they aren't too low, or ridiculously high.
As a general rule, that's fine. It's just that "too low" and "ridiculously high" are not exactly quantative values.
The datasheet will answer this question.
Diodes..Schottky only: Just make sure the ratings are appropriate....
There are ratings for the diode that you need to consider.
wait for it...
The datasheet will answer these questions.
You need a fast diode too. Not all Schottky diodes will be fast enough.
Layout: As tight as possible I presume.
There are some leads which must be kept short, and some earthing must be done in a particular way.
But.
You guessed it...
The datasheet will answer this question.
Inductors: Do they have to be exact?
The circuit will operate with out of spec inductors quite well, but you may get one or more of the following:
1) instability
2) excess ripple
3) poor regulation
4) limited maximum current
In general, you will find that careful reading will result in...
The datasheet answering this question
Well I appreciate the information!
I guess you might note that I was suggesting a source of this information..
Datasheets are something you need to learn to read. After you've read a few and figured out how the writers of these things tend to put them together you will be able to find all sorts of answers to questions you have probably never even thought to ask before.
Have a look at the datasheet link I gave you and see if you can find the information. If you can't find it, ask me and I'll try to find it for you.
Maybe the datasheet can't answer all the questions. The one I pointed you to contained a full application note as well, many do not, and some can verge one the woeful. Indeed for some parts you may be forced to look at the datasheet from other manufacturers (and then hope they apply)
