noise in an LDO regulator. The TPS713xx has an NR
pin that is connected to the voltage reference through
a 250 k internal resistor. The 250 k internal
resistor, in conjunction with an external ceramic
bypass capacitor connected to the NR pin, creates a
low-pass filter to reduce the voltage reference noise
and, therefore, the noise at the regulator output. To
achieve a fast startup, the 250 k internal resistor is
shorted for 400 µs after the device is enabled.
Because the primary noise source is the internal
voltage reference, the output noise will be greater for
higher output voltage versions. For the case where
no noise reduction capacitor is used, the typical noise
(µVrms) over 10 Hz to 100 kHz is 30 times the output
voltage. If a 0.01 µF capacitor is used from the NR
pin to ground, the noise (µVrms) drops to 11.8 times
