9 Power Supply Recommendations

The device is designed to operate from an input voltage supply range from 2.2 V to 6.5 V. The input voltage range should provide adequate headroom for the device to have a regulated output. This input supply should be well regulated. If the input supply is noisy, additional input capacitors with low ESR can help improve the output noise performance.
