PRODUCTION DATA
Choose resistors R1 and R2 to set the output voltage within a range of 0.8 V to 5.5 V, according to Equation 6. To keep the feedback network robust from noise, and to reduce the self-generated noise of resistors, set R2 equal to or lower than 5 kΩ. Lower values of FB resistors achieve better noise immunity, and lower light load efficiency, as explained in the Design Considerations for a Resistive Feedback Divider in a DC/DC Converter technical brief.
A feedforward capacitor (CFF) is not required for proper operation, but can further improve output noise. However, care must be taken in choosing the CFF, because the power-good (PG) function can not be valid with a large CFF during start-up, and can cause spurious triggering of the PG pin during a large load transient. Refer to the Pros and Cons Using a Feedforward Capacitor with a Low Dropout Regulator application report for a discussion of the pros and cons of using a feedforward capacitor.
