A –20 minimum output capacitor of 1µF with an ESR of 0.05Ω or ALUE (%) –40 less is recommended to ensure stability.

electrolytic capacitors may be used, but a low ESR ceramic capacitor must be in parallel at the output. There is no 20 minimum ESR or maximum capacitor size requirements. 0 Extra consideration must be given to the use of ceramic X5R capacitors. Ceramic capacitors are manufactured with a –20 Y5V variety of dielectrics, each with different behavior across –40 temperature and applied voltage. The most common di- electrics used are Z5U, Y5V, X5R and X7R. The Z5U and –60 Y5V dielectrics are good for providing high capacitances CHANGE IN VALUE (%) in a small package, but exhibit large voltage and tem- –80 BOTH CAPACITORS ARE 1µF, perature coefficients as shown in Figures 3 and 4.

The X7R type has better stability across temperature, while the X5R is less expensive and is available in higher values. In all cases, the output capacitance should never drop below 0.4µF, or instability or degraded performance may occur. 30251234ff 9 Document Outline Features Description Applications Typical Application Absolute Maximum Ratings Pin Configuration Order Information Electrical Characteristics Typical Performance Characteristics Pin Functions Block Diagram Applications Information Package Description Revision History Typical Application Related Parts
