By soldering the desired device to the evaluation board, the user can easily validate several parameters of the device. 1.2.1 Functional Blocks The SOT89-3 Voltage Regulator Evaluation Board can be broken up into 3 functional blocks. The blocks are: • Input Capacitance • Ground Current Measurement •...
Jumpers have been placed on the board to facilitate testing of specific voltage regulator parameters. The SOT89-3 Voltage Regulator Evaluation Board kit comes with a 1 µF ceramic input and output capacitor soldered to the board. The board has one unpopulated resistor location that may be used for a load.

Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR) Power Supply Rejection Ratio tests are performed by removing the input capacitor jumper, JP1, and connecting an appropriate PSRR analyzer to the SOT89-3 Voltage Regulator Evaluation Board. The PSRR analyzer may then sweep the input voltage frequencies and record the corresponding output voltages.
