Bypass and Load Capacitors
The LT6654 voltage references should have an input by-
pass capacitor of 0.1µF or larger, however the bypassing
on other components nearby is suffi cient. In high voltage
applications, V
IN
> 30V, an output short-circuit to ground
can create an input voltage transient that could exceed the
maximum input voltage rating. To prevent this worst-case
condition, an RC input line fi lter of 10µs (i.e. 10Ω and 1µF)
is recommended. These references also require an output
capacitor for stability. The optimum output capacitance for
most applications is 1µF, although larger values work as
well. This capacitor affects the turn-on and settling time
for the output to reach its fi nal value.
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
Figure 1 shows the turn-on time for the LT6654-2.5 with a
0.1µF input bypass and 1µF load capacitor. Figure 2 shows
the output response to a 0.5V transient on V
IN
with the
same capacitors.
The test circuit of Figure 3 is used to measure the stability
with various load currents. With R
L
= 1k, the 1V step pro-
duces a current step of 1mA. Figure 4 shows the response
to a ±0.5mA load. Figure 5 is the output response to a
sourcing step from 4mA to 5mA, and Figure 6 is the output
response of a sinking step from 4mA to 5mA.
