• Manufacturer Part Number: LT1175
• Description: 500mA Negative Low Dropout Micropower Regulator
• Manufacturer: LINER [Linear Technology]

To estimate regulator output ripple under different condi-
tions, the following general comments should be helpful:
1. Output ripple at high frequency is only weakly affected
2. A feedforward capacitor across the resistor divider
3. Input-to-output voltage differential has little effect on
If ripple rejection needs to be improved, an input filter can
be added. This filter can be a simple RC filter using a 1
to 10 resistor. A 3.3 resistor for instance, combined
with a 0.3
additional 20dB ripple rejection. The size of the resistor
will be dictated by maximum load current. If the maximum
voltage drop allowable across the resistor is “V
maximum load current is I
loads, larger resistors and smaller capacitors can be used

heavy loads. At very light loads (<10mA), higher fre-
quency ripple may be reduced by using larger output
capacitors.

used in place of the resistor. The value of the inductor can
be calculated from:

Example: ESR = 1.2 , f = 100kHz, rr = – 25dB.
Solid tantalum capacitors are suggested for the filter to
keep filter Q fairly low. This prevents unwanted ringing at
the resonant frequency of the filter and oscillation prob-
lems with the filter/regulator combination.
