EXTERNAL CAPACITOR REQUIREMENTS
A 0.1-碌F ceramic bypass capacitor is required on both the input and output for stability. Larger capacitors improve transient
response, noise rejection, and ripple rejection. A higher value electrolytic input capacitor may be necessary if large, fast
rise time load transient are anticipated, and/or there is significant input resistance from the device to the input power supply.
POWER DISSIPATION AND JUNCTION TEMPERATURE
Specified regulator operation is assured to a junction temperature of 125掳C; the maximum junction temperature allowable
without damaging the device is 150掳C. This restriction limits the power dissipation the regulator can handle in any given
application. To ensure the junction temperature is within acceptable limits, calculate the maximum allowable dissipation,
P
D(max)
, and the actual dissipation, P
D
, which must be less than or equal to P
D(max)
.
The maximum-power-dissipation limit is determined using the following equation:
