LIBB – Recommended Power Supplies
Recommended power supplies are listed below. For best results use linear or well designed hybrid models. Most linear designs and some hybrid power supplies will be suitable for use with LIBB. While LIBB can significantly reduce switching power supply noise, the end solution will still be noiser than an average linear power supply.
