This can be provided with a low performance reduces output voltage ripple at the expense of slower electrolytic capacitor. transient response. If your load is lower than 1.2A, then Step-down regulators draw current from the input supply you can decrease the value of the inductor and operate in pulses with very fast rise and fall times.

This allows you to use a capacitor is required to reduce the resulting voltage ripple physically smaller inductor, or one with a lower DCR at the LT3493-3 and to force this very high frequency resulting in higher efficiency.
