10 Power Supply Recommendations

The LMx31 can operate over a wide supply voltage range of 4 V to 40 V. For proper operation, the supply pin should be bypassing to ground with a low-ESR, 1-µF capacitor. It is acceptable to use X7R capacitors for this. For systems using higher supply voltages, ensure that the voltage rating for the bypass caps is sufficient.
