TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Optional Input/Output Filtering
When minimum conducted noise is required, it is often
advantageous to add an explicit input and/or output filter
to the topology. This can be a cost-effective way to reduce
conducted noise on the input or output node by an order
of magnitude or more. The exact details involved are a bit
lengthy, so the user is referred to the thorough treatments
in Application Notes AN19 and AN44. However, an ex-
ample will be given to illustrate the principles involved.
Figure 12 shows the previous “Basic 5V Output Applica-
tion” modified with an additional input inductor and an
output L/C combination. The dramatic improvement in
noise performance is seen in the accompanying oscillo-
scope photos shown in Figures 13 and 14. Operating
conditions are V

output voltage at 50mV/DIV, and the lower waveform is a
DC-coupled representation of current into the node at
50mA/DIV. Input voltage ripple is seen to decrease from
100mV
to decrease dramatically. (This improvement in AC ripple
current actually affects radiated magnetic noise.)
The next pair of scope photos in Figure 14 show an
AC-coupled version of the output node at 2mV/DIV.
Voltage ripple is seen to be originally about 12mV
most of the energy in the lowest harmonics. After the
addition of a 4.7 H inductor and a second 100 F output
capacitor, ripple is about 200 V
These input and output inductor requirements are typically
not very difficult to achieve, and inexpensive open style
DO1608C types were used in this example. Once again,
more costly closed-construction style inductors may be
employed, but these are usually not necessary, as the AC
fields generated by these inductors are typically small.
