The maximum output capacitor RMS ripple current
is given by:
Dissipation due to the RMS current in the ceramic
output capacitor ESR is typically minimal, resulting in
less than a few degrees rise in hot-spot temperature.
Adjustable Output Resistor Selection
For applications requiring an adjustable output volt-
age, the 0.6V version can be externally pro-
grammed. Resistors R1 and R2 of Figure 5 program

the output to regulate at a voltage higher than 0.6V.
To limit the bias current required for the external
feedback resistor string while maintaining good
noise immunity, the minimum suggested value for
R2 is 59kΩ. Although a larger value will further
reduce quiescent current, it will also increase the
impedance of the feedback node, making it more
sensitive to external noise and interference. Table 2
summarizes the resistor values for various output
voltages with R2 set to either 59kΩ for good noise
immunity or 221kΩ for reduced no load input current.
