For stable operation over the full temperature range and
with load currents up to 100mA, use ceramic capacitor
values greater than 4.7µF. Large output capacitors help
reduce noise, improve load-transient response, and
power-supply rejection at REG. Note that some ceramic
dielectrics exhibit large capacitance and ESR variation
with temperature. At lower temperatures, it may be nec-
essary to increase capacitance.
Under normal conditions, use a 10µF capacitor at IN.
Larger input capacitor values and lower ESR provide bet-
ter supply-noise rejection and line-transient response.
Inrush current control can be implemented by placing a
capacitor at GATE (Figure 8) to slowly ramp up the
GATE, thus limiting the inrush current and controlling
GATE’s slew rate during initial turn-on. The inrush cur-
rent can be approximated using the following formula:

When the external MOSFET is turned off during an over-
voltage occurrence, stray inductance in the power path
may cause voltage ringing exceeding the MAX6397/
MAX6398 absolute maximum input (IN) supply rating.
The following techniques are recommended to reduce
the effect of transients:
•
•
Add a resistor in series with IN to limit transient current
going into the input for the MAX6398 only.

Voltage Transients
Minimize stray inductance in the power path using
wide traces, and minimize loop area including the
power traces and the return ground path.
Add a zener diode or transient voltage suppressor
(TVS) rated below the IN absolute maximum rating
(Figure 9).
