Definition of Terms
Quiescent Current: That part of the positive input current
that does not contribute to the positive load current. The
regulator ground lead current.
Ripple Rejection: The ratio of the peak-to-peak input ripple
voltage to the peak-to-peak output ripple voltage.
Typical Applications
Note: Using 1k for R1 will ensure that the input bias current error of the adjust pin will be negligible. Do not bypass R1 or R2. This will lead to instabilities.
* Required if regulator is located far from power supply filter.

regulator. This capacitor must be rated over the same operating temperature range as the regulator and the ESR is critical; see curve.
**
* C
* To assure shutdown, select Resistor R3 to guarantee at least 300 µA of pull-up current when S1 is open. (Assume 2V at the ON/OFF pin.)
OUT
must be at least 22 µF to maintain stability. May be increased without bound to maintain regulation during transients. Locate as close as possible to the
