The thermal noise can be reduced, deviations and provide improved transient response for and transient response improved, by adding a capacitor larger load current changes.

Recommended PCB Layout
Give consideration to the use of ceramic capacitors as they are manufactured with a variety of dielectrics, each Figure 3 shows the recommended layout for LT3048 cir- with different behavior across temperature and applied cuits. Most important is careful placement of the BSTOUT voltage. The most common dielectrics used are specified bypass capacitor C2. High frequency AC current flows in a with EIA codes of Z5U, Y5V, X5R and X7R. Typical volt- loop formed by C2, internal power transistor Q1 and boost age and temperature coefficients are shown in Figures 4 diode D2. Keep this loop small. Also be sure to place an and 5. The X5R and X7R dielectrics have more stable unbroken ground plane below this loop, on the highest characteristics and are most suitable for use as the output copper layer below the surface. This prevents the AC loop capacitor. The X7R type has better stability across tem- from coupling to LDOOUT and other nearby circuitry. Keep perature, while the X5R is less expensive and is available the SW node as small as possible. in higher values. Care still must be exercised when using X5R and X7R capacitors; the codes only specify operating
