The APL5916 is designed with a programmable
feedback compensation adjusted by an external
feedback network for the use of wide ranges of ESR
and capacitance in all applications. Ultra-low-ESR
capacitors (such as ceramic chip capacitors), low-ESR
bulk capacitors (such as solid Tantalum, POSCap, and
Aluminum electrolytic capacitors) all can be used as
an output capacitor. The value of the output capacitors
can be increased without limit.
During load transients, the output capacitors,
depending on the stepping amplitude and slew rate of
load current, are used to reduce the slew rate of the
current seen by the APL5916 and help the device to
minimize the variations of output voltage for good
transient response. For the applications with large
stepping load current, the low-ESR bulk capacitors
are normally recommended.
Decoupling ceramic capacitors must be placed at the
load and ground pins as close as possible and the
impedance of the layout must be minimized.
Input Capacitor
The APL5916 requires proper input capacitors to
supply current surge during stepping load transients
to prevent the input rail from dropping . Because the
parasitic inductor from the voltage sources or other
bulk capacitors to the VIN pin limit the slew rate of the
surge currents, more parasitic inductance needs more
input capacitance.
Ultra-low-ESR capacitors (such as ceramic chip
capacitors), low-ESR bulk capacitors (such as solid
tantalum, POSCap, and Aluminum electrolytic
capacitors) can all be used as an input capacitor of
VIN. For most of applications, the recommended in-
put capacitance of VIN is 10 F at least. If the drop of
the input voltage is not cared, the input capacitance

can be less than 10 F. More capacitance reduces the
variations of the input voltage of VIN pin.
Feedback Network
Figure 1 shows the feedback network between VOUT,
GND and FB pins. It works with the internal error
amplifier to provide proper frequency response for the
linear regulator. The ESR is the equivalent series
resistance of the output capacitor. The C
capacitance in the output capacitor. The V
setting of the output voltage.
The feedback network selection depends on the values
of the ESR and C
three conditions:
• Condition 1 : Large ESR ( 18m )
• Condition 2 : Middle ESR
