Output Ripple Noise - REQUIRED

The output ripple and noise requirements listed in Table 4-6 shall be met throughout the load ranges specified for the appropriate form factor and under all input voltage conditions as specified in Table 4-1.

Ripple and noise are defined as periodic or random signals over a frequency band of 10 Hz to 20 MHz. Measurements shall be made with an oscilloscope with 20 MHz of bandwidth. Outputs should be bypassed at the connector with a 0.1μF ceramic disk capacitor and a 10 μF electrolytic capacitor to simulate system loading. Refer to Figure 4-1 for the differential noise measurement setup.
