9 Power Supply Recommendations

The input supply for the LDO should not exceed its recommended operating conditions (7 V to 100 V). The input voltage should provide adequate headroom for the device to have a regulated output. If the input supply is noisy, additional input capacitors with low ESR can help improve the output noise performance. The input and output supplies should also be bypassed with 10-µF capacitors located near the input and output pins. There should be no other components located between these capacitors and the pins.
