The linked Excel spreadsheet (ZIP,
4K) calculates compensation components based on the application requirements
and components specifications. User inputs are highlighted in blue.
Figure 1. Linear regulator.
B2: Output voltage, Vout
B3: Maximum output current
B4: Output capacitor, Cout
B5: ESR of output capacitor
B6: Bottom feedback resistor, R2
D6: Calculated top feedback resistor, R1 (does not apply to negative regulator)
B7: Chosen top feedback resistor (next higher standard value)
