PRODUCTION DATA.
Input and output capacitance improves the performance of the device; the actual capacitance should be optimized for the particular application. For all applications, a 0.1 μF or greater ceramic bypass capacitor between IN and GND is recommended to be as close to the device as possible for local noise de-coupling. This precaution reduces ringing on the input due to power-supply transients. Additional input capacitance may be needed on the input to reduce voltage overshoot from exceeding the absolute maximum voltage of the device during heavy-transient conditions. This is especially important during bench testing when long, inductive cables are used to connect the evaluation board to the bench power-supply.
TI recommends placing a high-value electrolytic capacitor on the output pin when large transient currents are expected on the output.
