8.1.3 Noise Reduction and Feed-Forward Capacitor Requirements

Although the noise-reduction (CNR_SS) capacitor is not needed to achieve stability, TI highly recommends using a 100-nF noise-reduction capacitor to minimize noise and maximize AC performance. The noise-reduction capacitor is especially important at low currents as shown in Figure 6-22.

It is generally recommended to not use a feed-forward capacitor. While a feed-forward capacitor can provide some improvements in PSRR at certain frequencies, it also has additional risks. See Pros and Cons of Using a Feed-Forward Capacitor with a Low Dropout Regulator for additional information.

CAUTION: Using a feed-forward capacitor with the TPS7H1210-SEP can cause the FB pin to go too positive during shutdown, thus damaging the device.

Figure 8-1 shows the different PSRR performance of the device with and without a feed-forward capacitor with VIN = –13 V, VOUT = –12 V, IOUT = 1 A, CNR_SS = 100 nF, and COUT = 50 μF.
