9.3 Power-Supply Recommendations

The REF20xx family of references feature an extremely low-dropout voltage. Operate the references of the REF20xx family with a supply of only 20mV above the output voltage. For loaded reference conditions, a typical dropout voltage versus load is shown in Figure 9-9. A supply bypass capacitor ranging between 0.1µF to 10µF is recommended.
