s Note on PSRR measurement
What is the PSRR ?
The PSRR is the Power Supply Rejection Ratio.
It’s a kind of SVR in a determined frequency
range. The PSRR of a device, is the ratio between
a power supply disturbance and the result on the
output.
We can say that the PSRR is the ability of a device
to minimize the impact of power supply
disturbances to the output.
How we measure the PSRR ?

s Principle of operation
• We fixed the DC voltage supply (Vcc)
• We fixed the AC sinusoidal ripple voltage
(Vripple)
• No bypass capacitor Cs is used
The PSRR value for each frequency is :
PSRR(d B) = 20 x Log 10
-----R-----m-----s----(--V-----r--i-p---p---l-e---)-----
Rms(Vs + - Vs-)
Remark : The measure of the Rms voltage is not a
Rms selective measure but a full range (2 Hz to
125 kHz) Rms measure. It means that we
measure the effective Rms signal + the noise.
