However, the use of an output capacitor is required in order to improve the stability and the performances. Reducing parasitic resistance and inductance One solution to minimize parasitic resistance and inductance is to connect in parallel capacitors. This arrangement will improve the transient response of the power supply if your system requires rapidly changing current load condition. Stability The output capacitor is part of the regulator’s frequency compensation system. Either a 22µF aluminum electrolytic capacitor or a 10µF solid tantalum capacitor between the output terminal and ground guarantees stable operation for all operating conditions. However, in order to minimize overshoot and undershoot, and therefore optimize the design, please refer to the section ‘Ripple Rejection’. Thermal Consideration Although the SPX1587 offers some limiting circuitry for overload conditions, it is necessary not to exceed the maximum junction temperature, and therefore to be careful about thermal resistance. The heat flow will follow the lowest resistance path, which is the Junction-to-case thermal resistance. In order to insure the best thermal flow of the component, a proper mounting is required. Note that the case of the device is electrically connected to the output. In case the case has to be electrically isolated, a thermally conductive spacer can be used. However do not forget to consider its contribution to thermal resistance. Ripple Rejection Ripple rejection can be improved by adding a capacitor between the ADJ pin and ground as shown in figure 6. When ADJ pin bypassing is used, the value of the output capacitor required increases to its maximum (22µF for an aluminum electrolytic capacitor, or 10µF for a solid tantalum capacitor). If the ADJ pin is not bypass, the value of the output capacitor can be lowered to 10µF for an electrolytic aluminum capacitor or 4.7µF for a solid tantalum capacitor. However the value of the ADJ-bypass capacitor should be chosen with respect to the following equation: C = 1 / (6.28 * FR * R1) Where C = value of the capacitor in Farads (select an equal or larger standard value), FR = ripple frequency in Hz, R1 = value of resistor R1 in Ohms. Assuming: VIN = 10V, VOUT = 5V, IOUT = 1.5A, TA = 50°C/W, θ Heatsink Case = 6°C/W, θ Heatsink Case = 0.5°C/W, θ JC = 3°C/W Power dissipation under this condition PD = (VIN – VOUT) * IOUT = 7.5W Junction Temperature TJ = TA + PD * (θ Case - HS+ θ HS + θ JC) For the Control Sections TJ = 50 + 7.5*(0.5 +6=3) = 121.25°C 121.25°C < TJ (max) for the Control & Power Sections. In both case reliable operation is insured by adequate junction temperature. If an ADJ-bypass capacitor is use, the amplitude of the output ripple will be independent of the output voltage. If an ADJbypass capacitor is not used, the output ripple will be proportional to the ratio of the output voltage to the reference voltage: M = VOUT / VREF Where M = multiplier for the ripple seen when the ADJ pin is optimally bypassed.

The resistance R1 generates a constant current flow, normally the specified load current of 10mA. This current will go through the resistance R2 to set the overall output voltage. The current IADJ is very small and constant. Therefore its contribution to the overall output voltage is very small and can generally be ignored. Output Voltage The fixed voltage LDO voltage regulators are simple to use regulators since the VOUT is preset to the specifications. It is important however, to provide the proper output capacitance for stability and improvement. For most operating conditions a capacitance of 22uF tantalum or 100uF electrolytic will ensure stability and prevent oscillation. Load Regulation Parasitic line resistance can degrade load regulation. In order not to affect the behavior of the regulator, it is best to connect directly the R1 resistance from the resistor divider to the case, and not to the load. For the same reason, it is best to connect the resistor R2 to the Negative side of the load.
