(1) All voltages are with respect to the GND pin.
(2) An input capacitor is not required for LDO stability. However, an input capacitor with an effective value of 0.47 μF minimum is recommended to counteract the effect of source resistance and inductance, which may in some cases cause symptoms of system-level instability such as ringing or oscillation, especially in the presence of load transients.
(3) Effective output capacitance of 0.4 μF minimum and 200 μF maximum over all temperature and voltage conditions is required for stability with ESR values as high as 100 mΩ. If the ESR is reduced to 20 mΩ or lower, stable operation can be achieved with effective output capacitance as low as 0.3 μF.
