Hi Andy,
I'm reading your NanoCounter article. It's an excellent article. But something puzzles me.
The LDO (LP5907) that powers the Connor Winfield M100 has three output capacitors: 1uF, 100n and 10n.
The 1uF capacitor is straight from the datasheet.
Why the other two?
I'v seen this construction before in high quality designs. Often the capacitors are mounted next to each other and of the same type. I can't seem to find out why this is done.
Thanks for your explanation.
Regards, Tonn
