9 Power Supply Recommendations

The LM20 has a very wide 2.4-V to 5.5-V power supply voltage range that makes ideal for many applications. In noisy environments, TI recommends adding at minimum 0.1 μF from V+ to GND to bypass the power supply voltage. Larger capacitances maybe required and are dependent on the power-supply noise.
