A typical transient response for a step change put for stable operation over the full temperature range in the load current from 100mA to 500mA is 8mV. and with load currents up to 500mA. Connect a 1μF Increasing the output capacitor’s value and decreasing capacitor between IN and ground and a 3.3μF low-ESR the ESR attenuates the overshoot. capacitor between OUT and ground. For output voltages less than 2V, use a 4.7μF low-ESR output capacitor. The Input-Output (Dropout) Voltage input capacitor (CIN) lowers the source impedance of the A regulator’s minimum input-to-output voltage differential input supply. Reduce noise and improve load-transient (dropout voltage) determines the lowest usable supply response, stability, and powersupply rejection by using voltage. In battery-powered systems, this determines the larger output capacitors, such as 10μF. useful end-of-life battery voltage. Because the MAX1818 The output capacitor’s (C uses a P-channel MOSFET pass transistor, its dropout OUT) equivalent series resis- tance (ESR) affects stability and output noise. Use output voltage is a function of drain-to-source on-resistance capacitors with an ESR of 0.1Ω or less to ensure stability (RDS(ON)) multiplied by the load current (see Typical and optimum transient response. Surfacemount ceramic Operating Characteristics). capacitors have very low ESR and are commonly avail- VDROPOUT = VIN - VOUT = RDS(ON) x IOUT able in values up to 10μF. Connect CIN and COUT as close to the MAX1818 as possible to minimize the impact The MAX1818 ground current remains below 150μA in of PC board trace inductance. dropout. Noise, PSRR, and Transient Response The MAX1818 is designed to operate with low dropout Chip Information voltages and low quiescent currents in battery-powered TRANSISTOR COUNT: 845 systems while still maintaining good noise, transient response, and AC rejection. See the Typical Operating Characteristics for a plot of power-supply rejection ratio (PSRR) versus frequency. When operating from noisy sources, improved supply-noise rejection and transient response can be achieved by increasing the values of the input and output bypass capacitors and through passive filtering techniques.
