9.4 Device Functional Modes

9.4.1 Basic Connections

Figure 9-1 shows the typical connections for the REF35-Q1. TI recommends a supply bypass capacitor (CIN)

ranging from 0.1 μF to 10 μF. A 0.1 μF to 10 μF output capacitor (CL) must be connected from REF to GND. The

equivalent series resistance (ESR) value of CL must be lower than 400 mΩ to ensure output stability.

9.4.2 Start-Up

Figure 9-2 shows the start-up behavior of REF35250 device with 1 μF load capacitance. REF35-Q1 device

ensures the output voltage settles to the expected output voltage within specified accuracy without oscillations.

The start-up time is dependent on the output voltage variant, output capacitance and NR pin capacitance. Higher

capcitance leads to longer start-up time.

9.4.3 Output Transient Behavior

The REF35-Q1 output buffer is capable of sourcing 10 mA load current as well as sink 5 mA of load current. The

output stage is designed using class AB architecture with ultra-low quiescent current. This architecture avoids

the dead zone around the no load condition. The output buffer uses a fast start-up implementation to achieve

2ms typical turn-on time at CL = 1 μF and no-load current condition.

Figure 9-3 and Figure 9-4 show the output settling behavior for light load transient and high load transient

respectively.
