Adjustable Operation (Legacy Chip)

Choose resistors R1 and R2 for approximately a 50μA divider current. Using lower-value resistors improves noise performance, but the solution consumes more power. Avoid higher resistor values because leakage current from FB across R1 and R2 creates an offset voltage that artificially increases or decreases the feedback voltage. Thus, causing output voltage (VO) to erroneously decrease or increase. The recommended design procedure is to choose R2 = 30.1kΩ to set the divider current at 50μA. Set C1 = 15pF for stability, then calculate R1 with the following equation.

Equation 2. TPS793-Q1

To improve the stability of the adjustable version, place a small compensation capacitor between the OUT and FB (feed-forward capacitor) pins. For voltages <1.8V, make sure the value of this capacitor is 100pF. For voltages >1.8V, the following equation calculates the approximate value of this capacitor.

Equation 3. TPS793-Q1

Table 7-2 lists the suggested value of this capacitor for several resistor ratios. If this capacitor is not used (such as in a unity-gain configuration) or if an output voltage <1.8V is chosen, use a larger output capacitor. The minimum recommended output capacitor in this case is 4.7μF instead of 2.2μF.
