9 Power Supply Recommendations

The devices are designed to generate from an input voltage supply range between 4.5 V and 35 V. The input should be well regulated. If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the LM3485 EVM, an additional bulk capacitor may be required. A tantalum capacitor with a valve of 47 µt as a typical choice.
