APPLICATION HINTS
EXTERNAL CAPACITORS
Like any low-dropout regulator, the ST2L05 requires external capacitors for stability. We suggest
soldering both ca pacitor s as close as possible to the relative pins (1, 4 and 5).
INPUT CAPACITOR
An input capacitor, whose value is, at least , 2.2µF is requir ed; t he amount of the input c apacitance can be
increased wi thout limit if a good qual ity tantalum or aluminium capacitor is used.SMD X7R or Y5V ceramic
mult ilayer c apacitors could not ensure sta bility i n any condition b ecaus e of their varia ble c haracteristics
with Frequency and Temperature; the use of this capacitor is strictly related to the use of the output
capacitors. For more details read the “OUTPUT CAPACITOR SECTION”.The input capacitor must be
located at a dist ance of not more than 0.5" from the input pin of the device and returned to a clean analog
ground.
OUTPUT CAPACITOR
The ST 2L05 is designed specificall y to work with Ceramic and Tantalum capacitors.Special care must be
taken when a Cerami c multilayer capacitor is used.Due to their characteristics they can sometimes hav e
