6. Overshoot of output voltage
Overshoot of output voltage occurs depending on the condition such as the rising speed of input voltage (VIN).
Overshoot voltage is the difference between the maximum value of output voltage generated by the fluctuation of
VIN and the actual output voltage (VOUT(E)) value.
6. 1 At normal operation
As shown in Figure 13, Vgs is the voltage difference between VIN and gate voltage of output driver.
The error amplifier controls Vgs in order to keep the output voltage constant depending on the fluctuation of VIN
and the output load.

6. 2 Occurrence of overshoot
If VIN voltage rises at a fast speed, Vgs may become large when gate voltage of output driver can not follow the
speed of VIN. When Vgs becomes large, the current supplied from output driver is increased transiently. Thereby,
output voltage rises, and then overshoot occurs.
Note that overshoot voltage is greatly affected by the following use conditions or temperature, etc.
• When VIN rises in the range of 2.0 V to VOUT(E).
• When the rising speed of VIN is fast.
• When the output capacitance is small.
• When the output load is small.

Caution Under the following conditions, overshoot voltage tends to become larger especially.
• When VIN rises from around 98% of VOUT(E).
• When the rising speed of VIN is 10 mV/μs or more.
Remark When overshoot of the S-1142A/B Series has some influences, consider to use the S-1142C/D Series.
