8.4.1.1 Stability (Closed Loop)

TLA431 is internally compensated to be stable without an output capacitor between the cathode and anode as shown in Figure 8-2. The TLA431 is also stable across all capacitive loads from cathode to anode. This includes the popular 0.1µF capacitor load. The TLA431 has been tested to have stable operation with no capacitive loads up to capacitors larger than 10µF. See Figure 6-11 for stability chart and test setup.

The TLA431 is sensitive to capacitance on the REF pin when the REF is isolated from cathode. For stable voltage regulation, do not add capacitance to the REF pin as shown in Figure 8-3.
