TECHNICAL NOTES
When using these ICs, consider the following points:
In these ICs, phase compensation is made for securing stable operation even if the load current is varied. For
this purpose, be sure to use a capacitor COUT with good frequency characteristics and ESR (Equivalent Series
Resistance) of which is in the range described as follows:

Measuring Circuit for white noise; R1111N301B
The relationship between IOUT (output current) and ESR of output capacitor is shown in the graphs below. The
conditions when the white noise level is under 40mV (Avg.) are indicated by the hatched area in the graph.
(note: When the additional ceramic capacitors are connected to the output pin with output capacitor for phase
compensation, the operation might be unstable. Because of this, test these ICs with as the same external
components as the ones to be used on the PCB.)
