Low input source impedance is necessary for the LDO
output to operate properly. When operating from
batteries, or in applications with long lead length
(> 10 inches) between the input source and the LDO,
some input capacitance is recommended. A minimum
of 1.0 µF to 4.7 µF is recommended for most
applications.
For
requirements, the input capacitance of the LDO is very
important. The input capacitance provides the LDO
with a good local low-impedance source to pull the
transient currents from in order to respond quickly to
the output load step. For good step response
performance, the input capacitor should be of
equivalent (or higher) value than the output capacitor.
The capacitor should be placed as close to the input of
the LDO as is practical. Larger input capacitors will also
help reduce any high-frequency noise on the input and
output of the LDO and reduce the effects of any
inductance that exists between the input source
voltage and the input capacitance of the LDO.

The PWRGD output is used to indicate when the output
voltage of the LDO is within 92% (typical value, see
Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics” for Minimum
and Maximum specifications) of its nominal regulation
value.
As the output voltage of the LDO rises, the PWRGD
output will be held low until the output voltage has
exceeded the power good threshold plus the hysteresis
value. Once this threshold has been exceeded, the
power good time delay is started (shown as T
Section 1.0 “Electrical Characteristics”). The power
good time delay is adjustable via the C
LDO (see Section 4.6 “C
capacitor from the C
good time delay can be adjusted from 200 µs (no
capacitance) to 300 ms (0.1 µF capacitor). After the
time delay period, the PWRGD output will go high, indi-
cating that the output voltage is stable and within
regulation limits.
If the output voltage of the LDO falls below the power
good threshold, the power good output will transition
low. The power good circuitry has a 170 µs delay when
detecting a falling output voltage, which helps to
increase noise immunity of the power good output and
avoid false triggering of the power good output during
fast output transients. See
timing characteristics.
When the LDO is put into Shutdown mode using the
SHDN input, the power good output is pulled low
immediately, indicating that the output voltage will be
out of regulation. The timing diagram for the power
good output when using the shutdown input is shown in
