APPLICATION NOTE

AN42

21

Note:
Load regulation is expected to be typically around 0.8%. The
load regulation performance for this device under evaluation is
excellent.

Output Voltage Load Transients Due to Load Current Step

This test is performed using Intel P6.0/P6S/P6T Voltage
Transient Tester.

Note:
Excellent transient voltage response. Transient voltage is rec-
ommended to be less than 4% of the output voltage. The per-
formance of the device under evaluation is significantly better
than a typical VRM.

Input Ripple and Power on Input Rush Current

Power on Input Rush Current is not measured on the mother-
board because we did not want to cut the 5V trace and insert
current probe in series with the supply. However, with the
input filter design, the Input Rush Current will be well within
specification.
