11 Power Supply Recommendations

The power supply can be three-cell alkaline, NiCd or NiMH, or one-cell Li-Ion or Li-Polymer battery. The input supply should be well regulated with the rating of TPS6125x. If the input supply is located more than a few inches from the device, additional bulk capacitance may be required in addition to the ceramic bypass capacitors. An electrolytic or tantalum capacitor with a value of 47 µF is a typical choice.
