8.2.2.1 Design Requirements

VIN > VOUT

VOUT = 2.5V

Select RS with Equation 7.

Equation 7. lRMIN < LR < lRMAX

where

  • lRMAX = 15mA

See the electrical characteristics tables in the Section 5 for minimum operating current for each voltage option and grade. When the output voltage, VZ, is set below 2.5V on adjustable versions of LM4041-N and LM4041-N-Q1, the device can experience increased reference voltage change with output voltage change (ΔVREF/ΔVKA) when compared to output voltages set equal to or above 2.5V
