An input capacitor is required if the regulator is located more
than 6 inches from power supply filter capacitors. A 10uF
solid tantalum capacitor is recommended.
An output capacitor of at least 10uF must be used to insure
stability of the regulator. Additional capacitance may be
added as required to improve the dynamic response of the
regulator. Solid tantalum and/or ceramic capacitors are
recommended.

Output Voltage Programming
The output voltage of the regulator can be programmed with
two external resistors and is described by the following
equation: V

The output capacitor and ESR comprise a zero in the loop
transfer function that must be compensated with a pole to
insure loop stability in accordance with the following
equation: C

capacitor should be a low ESR ceramic type.
Output Current Limit Programming
The output current limit threshold of the regulator can be
programmed with a single external resistor connected from
I
LIM
to ground. The current flowing into the I

pin is
described by the following equation: I
