The LTC6652 references with an output of 2.5V and above The LTC6652 voltage references are stable with or without are guaranteed to source and sink 5mA. The 1.25V and a capacitive load. For applications where an output capaci- 2.048V versions are guaranteed to source 5mA and sink tor is beneficial, a value of 0.1µF to 10µF is recommended 1mA. The test circuit for transient load step response is depending on load conditions. The Typical Performance shown in Figure 1. Figures 4 and 5 show a 5mA source Characteristics section includes a plot illustrating a region and sink load step response without a load capacitor, of marginal stability. Either no or low value capacitors for respectively. any load current are acceptable. For loads that sink current Start-Up or light loads that source current, a 0.1µF to 10µF capacitor has stable operation. For heavier loads that source current The start-up characteristic of the LTC6652 is shown in a 0.5µF to 10µF capacitor range is recommended. Figures 8 and 9. Note that the turn-on time is affected by the value of the output capacitor. V 2, 3 6 100Ω IN LTC6652-2.5 3V CIN COUT 0.1µF 1µF VGEN 0.5V 4, 5, 7, 8 6652 F01 Figure 1.
