Low Dropout Linear Regulator

Application Note

Input Capacitor

A 1μF ceramic capacitor is recommended between IN and GND pins to decouple input power supply glitch and

noise. The amount of the capacitance may be increased without limit. This input capacitor must be located as

close as possible to the device to assure input stability and reduce noise. For PCB layout, a wide copper trace is

required for both IN and GND pins. A lower ESR capacitor type allows the use of less capacitance, while higher

ESR type requires more capacitance.

Output Capacitor

The output capacitor is required to stabilize and improve the transient response of the LDO. The AP7365 is stable

with very small ceramic output capacitors. Using a ceramic capacitor value that is at least 1μF with ESR > 15mΩ

on the output ensures stability. Higher capacitance values help to improve line and load transient response. The

output capacitance may be increased to keep low undershoot and overshoot. Output capacitor must be placed as

close as possible to OUT and GND pins.
