Notes:
Source inductance should be no more than 200 nH. If source inductance is
greater than 200 nH, additional bypass capacitance may be required.
C3 should be placed close to the load.
R3 may be ESR of C3 or a seperate damping resistor.
D1 power good indicator will dim when a module fault is detected.
