and IFB is the feedback pin bias current, nominally -
20nA. The minimum recommended load current of
1µA forces an upper limit of 1.2MΩ on the value of R2.
Using a 1.2MΩ resistor for R2, the bias current will al-
ready cause a 2% shift in output voltage. For better
accuracy, choosing R2=100KΩ reduces this error to
0.17% at the price of merely increasing the resistor
programming current to 12µA.
