PRODUCTION DATA.
To ensure a low output impedance of the device switched-capacitor stage (charge pump), connect a 1-µF X5R or a better dielectric capacitor in parallel with the bulk capacitor CSCIN. Figure 32 shows the switched-capacitor stage output impedance versus temperature at the maximum output current of 120 mA. When a DC supply power source is used to power the device under heavy loading conditions close to the maximum current rating at high temperature, the load can run the LDO into dropout because of the degradation in the charge pump output impedance. To enhance performance with a DC supply, apply the DC supply voltage to the SCIN pin equal to 4 (VLDO_OUT (nom) + 0.6 V) + 2 V to ensure optimal performance. See Figure 5 and Figure 6 for a 3.3-V output voltage example.
